Music Theatre, Acting, Dance Classes
(Winter/Spring)
If your child loves to sing, dance and act, they will love this musical theatre performance class. Students in age appropriate group classes work on scenes, songs and dances as they are introduced to vocal, acting and dance skills. The students will select, rehearse and present a costumed musical to invited guests in the Conservatory Theatre at the end of the session. These unique programs were created and developed by Melody over 20 years of professional teaching. All Classes are 1 hour unless noted. Note this semester we again will have one Musical performance classes that is 90 minutes – The Sound of Music – on Saturday.
