Do you have a child who enjoys performing and has a sincere interest in learning about theater and improving his/her acting, singing and/or dancing skills? Is your child motivated to work hard, strive for excellence, and have a lot of fun being part of the magic of putting on a musical production? If your child is that student, this extraordinary program is for her or him! Your child will gain experience in the following aspects of musical theater: (1) dance and movement; (2) music/voice technique; (3) acting/character development; and (4) production design and creation (Your son/daughter will have a chance to make or create some aspect of the costumes, sets, or props for the show!).
