Musical Theater
Musical Theatre is a form of theatrical performance that combines song, spoken dialogue, acting, and dance. The story and emotional content of a musical are communicated through words, music, movement, and acting. The class will teach all of these elements through learning performance material that will prepare them to be in a musical in our upcoming shows. They will also learn backstage etiquette and stage performance. Wear comfortable clothing to move in, and closed-toed shoes (such as tennis shoes or jazz shoes–no flip flops or sandals.)
Musical Theater Dance

In this dynamic environment, you'll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in a variety of dance styles, including jazz, hip-hop, and more, while embracing the enchanting world of theater. Whether you're just starting your dance journey or you an experienced performer looking to sharpen your technique, our passionate and energetic instructors are here to support you every step of the way. Prepare to unleash your creativity, boost your self-confidence, and forge wonderful friendships with fellow dance lovers in a fun-filled atmosphere that celebrates the art of performance!
Acting & Improv
Forgetting a line in a song or monologue can be scary. This class will provide a fun and unintimidating way to get those creative juices flowing when off-script. This class will also teach actors how to build a character and remain in character while on stage. You may need to bring a tissue box to this class. This class is guaranteed to bring tears of laughter to your eyes. Stage confidence and etiquette are also taught in this class.
Stage Combat: Unarmed & Short Sword Techniquest
This class introduces the fundamentals of stage combat with a focus on unarmed techniques and short sword work. Students will learn safe and effective methods for creating the illusion of violence while maintaining full control and protecting their scene partners. Training includes basic strikes, blocks, reactions, choreography, timing, and performance skills. Emphasis is placed on safety, storytelling, and character-driven movement, helping performers build confidence and realism in staged fights for theatre and film.
