A pre-professional training program designed for students entering high school in Fall 2026 and ready to develop as confident, versatile performers through integrated training in voice, acting, and movement.

The Musical Theatre Conservatory integrates singing, acting, and movement to prepare students for the dynamic demands of musical theatre performance. Students train in vocal technique, character development, storytelling, stage presence, and audition preparation, while exploring repertoire from classic Broadway to contemporary productions.

Classes emphasize performance skills, including scene study, song interpretation, ensemble work, and stage movement, helping students connect acting choices with vocal performance.

Through workshops, rehearsals, and staged performances, students gain practical experience performing musical theater repertoire while building confidence and versatility as performers.

A Week in the Conservatory:

  • Voice & Musicality

  • Dance & Movement

  • Acting & Scene Work

  • Integration & Ensemble

This schedule is tentative and will be finalized to best serve the needs of enrolled students.
