Musical Theatre West (MTW) will offer a three-week summer youth conservatory July 9-29 taught by industry professionals and designed to help students develop and hone skills necessary for future careers in professional musical theatre.
In addition to acting, voice and dance training, the program will expand their knowledge of the world of musical theater and create the initial foundation for strong audition package, according to MTW. By the completion of the conservatory, students will be equipped with a fully rehearsed audition song and a wider understanding of how to navigate through the professional field of musical theatre.
The conservatory runs Mondays through Fridays. Ages 8-12 meet from 9am to noon. Ages 13-18 meet from 1pm to 5pm. The session will end with a performance of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat for parents, families, friends and the general public July 27 and 28. Enrollment is limited to 25 students per age group (with limited slots still available). Tuition for the program is $425.
