    RISA Critiques are a comfortable, friendly atmosphere for members to try out new material, with potluck snacks and beverages.


    PREPARATION: It is best to bring songs that you don't consider finished. You can perform your song live (bring your instrument), or bring a pre-recorded CD, or a digital file of your song with your own speaker capabilities. Please also print out 10-12 copies of your lyrics to distribute to attendees. You choose how deeply you would like to receive critical feedback. 

    Please contact Elayne Terranova (etterranova@aol.com) for location and more details. Arrive at 7:30 pm for chat, then critique starts at 8:00 pm.

    “Stand and Deliver!” ~ Sing your songs with confidence and success. Performance workshop with vocal coach and singer/songwriter, Lilly Cataldi

    Free for members and $25 for non-members. ($25 can go towards your membership.) Limit 20 participants

    Improve upon the delivery and performance of your songs. Learn to love the stage by building a stronger relationship with your material as well as the audience and enjoy the experience of performing! 

    Lilly has 45 years of coaching experience and has assisted many performing artists with their delivery and stage presence by offering different tools and methods to lose nerves and gain confidence when sharing their expression with others.

    Bring your guitar and a song you’d like to work on. Participants will support one another in this fun and interactive workshop as they sharpen their presentation skills.

    In addition to her love of singing original songs, Lilly is a member of Actor’s Equity Association, singing and dancing her way across the stage in national tours, regional theatres, cabarets, pubs, and piano bars. She is an inspirational vocal/acting coach, director, and choreographer.
