Please Note: Winter 2026-2027 registration will open in November 2026. The winter recital class schedule will continue the same classes/dates/locations as the fall schedule. Instructors may make suggestions after the first class regarding the appropriate class for the child based on his/her skill level. Years of experience for leveled classes begin with Little Dancers I as year 1, having taken the class for a minimum of 1 full year. If you are interested in the class and it is full, please add yourself to the waitlist so we know that there is more interest in that level.

Musical Theatre
Discover an exciting lineup of Musical Theatre programs for young performers ages 4 to 18, ranging from beginner workshops to advanced productions. Each session combines weekly rehearsals with mandatory tech and performance dates - providing a complete theatrical experience for every skill level.
All students must be fully registered prior to auditions and the first class date. Placement auditions and a mandatory parent meeting will take place on the first class date, and attendance is required for all participants. Please do not register if you are unable to attend all required dates and times.
Registration guarantees a role in the production; however, auditions are used to determine individual casting and role assignments. Approximately one week before classes begin, families will receive an email with class information and an audition packet with materials to prepare in advance.
With the exception of Broadway Kids, students may not be called for the full duration of each rehearsal session. Every student is guaranteed a minimum of one hour of instruction per meeting date.
Registration includes a $77 non-refundable production fee.
