· Performing Artists Workshop - now with two experience levels - Perfect for younger students!
This team taught workshop features a three person faculty - popular local performer and vocal instructor Lisa Passonno Franklin, Producing Artistic Director Owen Smith, and Resident Choreographer Ashley-Simone Kirchner! Each student will receive dance, acting and vocal instruction during the weekly 90-minute class sessions. Based on an assessment by our staff, students will be divided into two levels to allow less experienced students separate instruction from intermediate students.
Classes are held Wednesdays from 5:30 to 7:00pm at the Palace Theatre
Recommended for students from ages 8 to 13
This 10 week session’s classes begin September 16 and run through November 18
Cost for 10-week session, per student is $250
· Dance Classes – NEW for Fall 2015 ADVANCED JAZZ
As resident dance instructor for Park Playhouse, Ashley-Simone Kirchner will be teaching a full series of dance classes in a variety of styles to students at a range of skill levels. Ballet is the basis of all musical theatre dance technique and we encourage all students to consider this class before or in addition to registering for Musical Theatre Dance. Advanced Jazz is a college prep track intended for students with significant prior dance training. This series of dance classes is ideal for middle and high school students.

· Advanced Scene Study – Ideal for older students hoping to hone their acting skills!
This new class series is dedicated to advancing students’ skills in the art of acting. While many local students have private voice teachers or take dance classes, it is our experience that very few students have gained formal instruction in acting technique. We firmly believe that this is essential for success in theatre, including success as a dancer or vocalist. Classes will be taught by Producing Artistic Director, Owen Smith.
Classes are held Thursdays from 7:00pm to 8:30pm at The Palace Theatre
This 10-week session’s classes run from September 17 to November 19
Intended for students ages 15 to 18
