Ready to sing your heart out? Whether you're new to musical theatre or ready to level up, this is your chance to bring show-stopping songs to life. Each session begins with vocal warm-ups that build healthy technique. Then we dive into ensemble numbers from hit Broadway shows like Annie, Seussical, or Bye, Bye, Birdie. Over the course of the session, you'll build performance skills, strengthen your voice, and connect with fellow performers in a fun, supportive space. We'll wrap it all up with a final mini-concert for family and friends -- because every great musical moment deserves an audience!

*Please be sure you can commit to the schedule and especially the final two classes (dress rehearsal & showcase day), and communicate any conflicts before registering. Unapproved absences may result in removal from some or all performance pieces -- the show must go on, after all.
