Take It From The Top
This professional Broadway workshop was designed by Broadway veterans Paul Canaan (Kinky Boots, Legally Blonde, Thoroughly Modern Mille, La Cage Aux Folles, Miss Saigon) and Tony Nominee Laura Bell Bundy (Legally Blonde, Wicked, Hairspray and Ruthless). Take It From The Top is a unique opportunity to spend the week learning from a talented team of experienced Broadway professionals and casting directors. Students explore the “triple threat” performing arts disciplines of music, dance and theater. Our camps are a safe place to explore new ideas and hone your skills. A final recital will showcase the work students have done for an invited audience of family and friends. If you’re interested in pursuing a career in musical theater, this is your chance to explore the process of casting, auditions, rehearsals and performance and network with professionals in the industry. Students should prepare and bring sheet music for an age-appropriate musical theater song.
