Musical Theatre
Ages: 6 and up

Class Description:  Made for homeschool families, this all-levels musical theatre class combines singing, dancing, and acting in one fun, creative space. Students will develop performance skills, characterization, and stagecraft — including working with costumes and props — while building confidence and community with fellow homeschool performers. Each semester wraps up with a showcase where students perform a musical theatre medley for family and friends.

*Please note: it is important to make as informed a decision as possible when choosing your student's Community Resource classes. Most locations will allow a student to drop a class after one meeting, at no charge if it wasn't a good fit for the student, but not all. Some classes plan ahead based on the number that have signed up and have purchased materials, hired teachers, etc. and there might be a fee for class time or materials given to the student if the student drops after one or two meetings. The school cannot pay for classes that students do not complete, so choose wisely; if you do not take the class off of your student's schedule by the deadline, you may be asked to pay for the class time incurred prior to dropping the class.
