PROGRAM GOALS
For those who combine a passion for Music Theatre with singing, acting and dancing abilities, this intensive performance training program is ideal. Graduates will have trained with professional instructors in acting, both for stage and for film. Vocal work includes technique, interpretation, with all solo work supported by one on one tutorials. Musicianship will be stressed through key-board instruction, sight-singing instruction, choral work and elementary composition. Studio work in dance for musical theatre includes ballet, jazz, tap and modern styles. Skills will be integrated through performance.

This program will appeal to students who have a love of performance, are able to demonstrate vocal potential, are ambitious and possess a strong work ethic. Students will be required to work with professional instructors in a highly disciplined environment.

EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES
Graduates will find work as performers in professional theatres, on cruise ships, in dinner theatres, in theme parks, summer festivals and in commercial musical theatre productions. There is also acting for film and stage. Opportunities also exist in commercial voiceovers and studio recording. Some graduates choose to go into theatre administration.
