ABOUT OUR CLASSESIs there a performance at the end of classes?Our classes emphasize the process of theatre vs. product. At the end of the semester, students will showcase their work in our “Class Sharings” for invited family and friends.

Our Performance Musical Theatre Showcases are more production oriented. Showcases include technical elements such as simple costumes, a basic set, lights and sound. Actors will perform their play for invited family and friends. Our Fall Musical Theatre Showcases are Elf Jr. and The Little Elves!

What are the benefits of signing my child up for classes more than once?Taking a class multiple times immensely benefits our young actors and technicians. Like a dancer spending time perfecting their form at the barre or a pianist at the keys, our students repeat exercises, warm-ups, and activities in order to build a strong foundation in voice, movement, acting, and design. Final showcase materials are constantly rotating so students are continually exposed to new material and repertoire.
