EDUCATION Musical theatre performance programs for the Spring, Summer, and Fall semesters. Performing opportunites include entry-level classes to gain experience and public performance skills, audition-only classes for students to advance and improve their craft, and skill-based classes such as improvisation, acting, dance, and voice. Additionally, we offer students the challenge to prepare and audition for JTF, the annual trip to Sacramento or Atlanta to perform and learn at the annual international MTI Junior Theater Festival. JTF affords our students with opportunities to demonstrate their personal and team efforts, share with other students from around the world, and learn from professionals in the industry including Broadway actors and world-renowned instructors.
COMMUNITY SERVICE Our students are encouraged to discover and demonstrate a passion for a wide variety of community service projects outside the theatre through the year. Our service partners include a Casa de Esperanza Our students support Casa through literature-based performances. b Step-Up Houston Students collect and organize a donation drive providing clothing, shoes, and toiletries then personally deliver them to Houstons homeless. c Gift Card Giveaway Students personally donated and collected cash and gift cards to give away as random acts of kindness around Houston while sharing their love of music and service with holiday carols. d Students rehearsed and performed a literature-based holiday play at under-served elemetary schools for students who may otherwise not have access to live theater.
