AcademyLIVE! 101 Dalmatians! (Performance Class Ages 6-11) Sundays 2:15pm – 4:00pm
Are you ready to put on an entire show?! In this class, young performers will audition, rehearse, and perform an entire musical with lights, set pieces, and cast t-shirts with costume accessories! This experience is an excellent opportunity for a performer who is ready to put their talents towards practical use AND for the performer seeking an introduction in how to put an entire show. No pre-audition required. Every student enrolled will have a part in the show! Auditions will take place on the first day. All material for the audition will be taught at TCT on the first day of class! We will have 1 public show at TCT on the last day of rehearsal. Performers will also receive a cast shirt, and a digital link of their filmed performance. All students enrolling MUST have black jazz shoes (no laces) and black jazz or athletic pants with no logo or writing on them at the beginning of the class.
