Yes. Students will audition to be accepted into the program.

Once accepted, the first week of the intensive focuses on building skills in acting, singing, and dancing, as well as learning proper audition techniques.

At the end of the first week, students will audition again, and the show will be cast based on their growth, effort, and performance throughout the week.

We cast each show based on the needs of the script and production.

While we do not add or create additional roles, there are opportunities for all cast members to be involved. Students cast in the ensemble will often play multiple roles throughout the show.

Our goal is to stay true to the original production while making sure every student has a meaningful experience on stage.

The summer intensive is a fast-paced, three-week program that requires consistent attendance.

Rehearsals take place daily, and students are expected to be present and engaged each day to keep up with the pace of the production.

A detailed schedule, including rehearsal times and performance dates, will be provided upon acceptance into the program.

Yes. Due to the short and intensive nature of the program, attendance is very important.

Each rehearsal builds on the previous day, and missing time can impact both the student’s progress and the overall production.

We ask that families only register if they can commit to the full schedule.

We understand that unexpected situations may arise. If a student must miss a rehearsal, please communicate with us as soon as possible.

However, due to the fast-paced nature of the program, excessive absences may impact a student’s role or participation in certain parts of the production.

We encourage all students to audition, even if they are still developing their skills.

To be considered for the Act 1 Summer Intensive, students should come prepared with the following:

General Expectations
Students should arrive prepared, focused, and ready to perform. All material must be memorized, and students should demonstrate confidence, effort, and a willingness to take direction.

That’s completely okay!

We create a supportive environment where students are encouraged to take risks, build confidence, and grow.

The first week of the program is specifically designed to help students develop their skills in acting, singing, and dancing before casting takes place.

Performances will take place at Coral Springs Charter School on the final Saturday of each intensive.

Each session concludes with a full production on a live stage for family and friends, giving students the opportunity to showcase everything they’ve learned throughout the program.

Students should bring:

• A water bottle

This program is designed to give students a true, professional theatre experience in a supportive and structured environment.

Students receive training in acting, singing, and dancing, then apply those skills in a full production performed in a professional theatre.

Our focus is not only on performance, but also on building confidence, discipline, and teamwork.

This program is designed for students in grades 2–8 who have an interest in theatre and performing.

We welcome students with prior experience as well as those who are still developing their skills. The intensive is structured to both challenge and support each student while helping them grow in confidence, performance ability, and teamwork.
