Parents! Is your child new to theatre? Read over this!
During the course of this process, student cast members will audition, rehearse and perform the full-length musical, learn the process from audition to performance, and develop rehearsal techniques and professional etiquette.
Rehearsals range between 1.5 - 3 hrs long and will include instruction in singing, dancing, and acting.
How will this program help my child?
Your child will learn to develop their speech, how to use eye contact, body language and the joy of storytelling using their body and their voice. Confidence and communication will grow as they work within an ensemble to create a magical world of their own, a place where dreams really do come true!
