The Coral Springs Center for the Arts is offering a fun, theatrical-based learning experience for children and teens culminating in two major musical productions. Next Stop Broadway: The Academy will provide training classes in acting, singing, and dance for students in kindergarten through high school.
The one-year program is comprised of a building block format which allows each student to excel and learn in a nurturing environment of their peers. Studying during the school year is designed, so each student is more involved and receives individual attention. All the programs culminate in full-scale Broadway-style productions and recitals performed on a professional stage.
Broadway Series
These training programs are developed on an independent study format so students can flourish while improving their skills. For only $130 per month, the students attend classes, workshops, and rehearsals in each area of study: music, dance, and acting.
Casting begins in early November when the production staff has had the chance to assess the students’ present capabilities. Everyone gets a role as either a lead, supporting player, or ensemble member, which reflects each individual’s current abilities as they further develop their own style.
The show is used as a vehicle to teach techniques that are more intriguing and challenging. The most powerful achievement will be their performance in a full-scale Broadway-style show at the end of the season, which can only be accomplished through consistent invigorating work and dedication.
- Wizard of Oz for grades 4-7 Tuesdays and Thursdays, 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.
- Wild Party for grades 8-12 Mondays, 6 to 9 p.m.
Group Ensemble Classes
Classes are $60 per month for acting, singing, and dance, for grades K-12. These inspiring programs allow students to train with professionals and build self-esteem and confidence and culminate with an end-of-season recital.
