Goal
This intensive is designed to encourage, push and prepare the student for professional musical theatre auditions. Our leaders are working Broadway and Industry professionals. We thrive on teaching through experience and professional knowledge, pushing kids to exceed their individual potential and expectations with positive reinforcement. At the end of the week, each student will take away a song that is audition ready, improved dance skills, heightened knowledge of the business, confidence and life long friends!
