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, and then we'll dive into ensemble numbers from hit Broadway shows like The Addams Family, Hadestown, or Once Upon a Mattress. 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.
