In addition to our CORE Acting and Musical Theatre classes, 6th-8th grade students have an exciting array of electives to choose from this year! CORE Classes are designed to provide students with a fundamental understanding of either acting or musical theatre and are the same curriculum each term. ELECTIVE Classes are for students looking for an in-depth exploration of a particular topic and change every term. Take both CORE and Elective Classes for a well-rounded theatre education!<\/span><\/p>\n
