In this 10-week program, students rehearse a scene and musical number from a current Encores! show, as well as create and rehearse an original scene and song based on themes generated by the class. Students develop skills and techniques in dance, theater, and music, as they build a vocabulary within musical theater. They learn respect for the creative collaboration necessary to produce musical theater and are empowered to create their own work. The program concludes with a cross-school Sharing Session and a professional dress rehearsal of an Encores! show. |
