This is a 9 week, Fall session class. End of session performance is usually the evening of the last day of class (Tuesday, Jan 12). Historically around 5:50/6pm. We are still coordinating with Musical Theater of MN on how it will look this year, but we anticipate it to look very similar to last year. We ask that all students who sign up continue for the whole session (as the whole production relies on all parts to be present). This program will enhance confidence and allow children to embrace their love for the arts. We will work on dance, voice, and theater techniques through a series of different exercises and games. You will learn and rehearse songs from well-known musicals such as Hamilton, The Lion King, Aladdin, leading to a mini in-class performance on the last day.
