Morning Rotation
Each morning, students entering second grade and up participate in age-based, conservatory-style class rotations where they receive structured instruction in dance, vocal performance, and acting. Students entering K through 1st grade (the “Littles”, see camper group breakdown) participate in a morning schedule tailored specifically to their ages and attention spans.

Wildcard Rotation
After lunch, we hold a “wildcard” session in which we do something different each day. Past wildcards have included:
— Master classes with Broadway, film, and TV performers
— Visits from film, TV, and Broadway casting directors
—Audition workshops and clinics with Broadway agents and managers (some of our students were even “discovered” and signed by management as a direct result of these clinics)
—Workshops on set design, technical direction, costuming, and more
—Additional full company dance and song performance rehearsals
—Intensives in specialized dance styles such as hip-hop or tap
—Acting for film, television, and commercials
Afternoon Session (Performance Workshop)
The time period from 1:15 to dismissal is our Performance Workshop, where campers break into performance groups to rehearse for the Friday evening performance.
