What to Expect

Students rehearse twice weekly in preparation for a fully staged production featuring professional costumes, sets, lighting, and direction. During rehearsals, students will memorize their lines, learn precise blocking (stage movements and positioning), and master choreography for songs and dance numbers. They will also practice integrating their acting, singing, and movement to deliver a polished, cohesive performance. This immersive process helps students build confidence, teamwork skills, and stage presence as they prepare to bring the show to life in front of a live audience.
