Class Description

    Members of our performing groups are chosen by experience and ability and are enrolled in a full course of classes consisting of Voice, Acting, Song Interpretation, Jazz/Hip Hop, Tap, Ballet/Modern and Performing class. Each performing group track fosters growth in all of these areas of performing, enabling students to become well-rounded performers. In “Performing Classes” we focus on putting together all of the elements of performing – acting, dancing, singing and performing production numbers. This course builds upon the skills learned in the individual acting, dancing, voice and song interpretation classes, and offers students the opportunity to build their ability to act, dance and sing in harmony at the same time! This class performs at the end of the fall and spring semesters.
