This fun and exciting class for K-2nd grade students introduces children to the fundamentals of musical theatre. Students will explore singing, acting and dancing as they prepare for our production each semester. Beginning Musical Theatre (BMT) will give students a solid foundation, which will prepare them for Production Company classes.
We offer three sections of this class, all of which are held at our Main Campus. Please enroll in the section that works best for your schedule.
Students will perform with our Junior Production Company members in Disney’s Aladdin Jr. (January 14-16, 2022), as well as The Wizard of Oz: Youth Edition (June 10-12, 2022).
Classes for The Wizard of Oz: Youth Edition begin the week of January 31, 2022.
Students already enrolled for the fall semester (Aladdin and Mamma Mia) do not need to reenroll.
Students enrolling prior to January 27 will be put on a waiting list. We will open up enrollment on January 27 and move anyone from the waiting list to the class roster, as long as their is room. We will notify you when we have moved your child into the class.
Tuition is $55 per month. Students taking more than one class (i.e. Beginning Musical Theatre and a dance class) will receive a discounted rate on additional classes.
In addition to the $55.00 monthly tuition, there is also a $60.00 Production Fee due each semester, as well as an annual $25 Enrollment Fee. The Production Fee helps cover the cost of theater rental, show royalties, costumes, sets, props, etc.
Toward the end of each semester, students in Beginning Musical Theatre may be called on a Saturday to rehearse with the entire cast. During the week of the show they will be called for two extended, mandatory rehearsals at the theater.
Students should wear clothes which allow for ease of movement to class. Girls need black ballet shoes and boys can wear black ballet shoes or black jazz shoes.
