Pre Professional COMPANY
Ages 14+ Experience Required | $375.00 | Mondays & Wednesdays 6:00-10:00pm|May 2024 - July 2024 | Gasworks
This program provides teens and young adults with the platform to continue their musical theatre training throughout the summer. It is a musical theatre intensive with ONLY 8 weeks of rehearsals on Monday and Wednesdays from 6:00-10:00pm and a full weekend of shows. Our goal is to give our performers a genuine professional theatre experience in a fast pace and supportive environment.
The rehearsal schedule is organized after the roles have been cast so we can accommodate individual work and summer schedules. All cast members are welcome to all rehearsals but only need to attend the rehearsals they are called too. It is important to us that these individuals are able to proceed with working and career opportunities alongside training and advancing their musical theatre performance skills throughout this process.
The programs focus is giving actors the opportunity to focus on their performance skills in an encouraging environment that also allows them to grow and be challenged as a performer while having a great time with their peers. We have an experienced and professional production team and crew that handles all other aspect of the show to give students a genuine professional experience.
This program culminates in public performances in early August. Many individuals who attend this program come from various artistic backgrounds and intend on pursuing careers in the arts or arts education industries, but everyone is welcome to come and audition. Recently we have performed 13 The Musical, Cabaret and Heathers to sold out audiences. We are so excited to continue this program after 2 years of being shut down, we offer an experience like no other; we hope you will join us in all of the fun in this years Pre Professional Musical.
