Classes
Develop your skills by participating in a class for voice, dance, or drama.
We offer a variety of skill-building theatre classes. Students have the opportunity to become fully immersed in music theater by developing their skills in voice, dance, or drama.
Classes run for 9-10 consecutive weeks and are offered on Tuesday or Thursday evenings. During the last week of class, a high-energy showcase is presented by each class to showcase what they have learned for their friends and family. Â
Act One Theatre Classes
Act One Theatre Classes are for ages 8-12. Classes for this age are aimed at imparting foundational skills that help students gain confidence in the performing arts of voice, dance, and drama.Â
Act Two Theatre Classes
Act Two Theatre Classes are for ages 13-18. Classes for this age include core classes with foundational skills, advanced classes, and other performing arts elective classes.Â
Elective classes offer opportunities for other performing arts education that may not fit into the dance, voice, and drama categories.Â
Enrollment Show Class
A junior show production is offered every session to give students a musical theatre experience. All students enrolled are cast in the show. Rehearsals for the fall and spring enrollment shows are three hours a week on Tuesday evenings from 5:30-8:30. The costumes and sets are simple and spare. We appreciate parents helping with finding and adapting costumes from our costume room, assisting with simple sets, and volunteering with mics and greenroom for the performances. The winter session enrollment show option is for ages 8-18 and will rehearse on Thursdays from 6-9 p.m.
