Teen Performance Program

After a successful first year and run of Into The Woods Jr, we’re excited to continue this offering... a natural progression for our Performance Program. This is a more advanced experience just for students grade 8+! Not only will these Teens be learning technique and many skills as they build a licensed musical production, but there will be a variety of specialized theatre workshops throughout the year, including some amazing guest artists! As with all of our programs, no previous experience is necessary; all we ask for is commitment, effort, and a willingness to try new things and PLAY!

We offer a “triple threat” combination of building musical theatre skills, gaining performance experience, and a leadership-in-training initiative. Participants are given opportunities to explore their teaching skills, learn about backstage management, and more!

Teens will spend the first few weeks in the Fall exploring various musicals, and will ultimately get a say in which show we do! Where our younger shows are multi-cast, this will be more typical casting to give older students the advanced experience of doing a full show in a role.

Students in grade 8 can choose which program they prefer; the 3 session Performance Program, or this September-May model. Get in touch for details.

There will be additional learning opportunities outside of class time- like set painting and helping back stage. These are optional and will be coordinated throughout the year (volunteer hours can be given).

Students will need to miss some school on show days between May 20th-22nd (exact timing TBC).

Please note that Monday May 19th (Victoria Day) will be a MANDATORY full day stage rehearsal.

Classes run on Wednesdays 5:30-8pm from September through the end of May (NOT our traditional 3 session model).
