Triple Threat Summer Intensive (Grades 8-12)

Theatre Arts Training’s performance opportunities are specifically designed for students who have demonstrated commitment to their craft as performers and display a positive attitude in their work. Students work with like-minded peers and industry professionals to produce a play or musical.  During this five-week intensive course, students will spend their mornings in studio classes, advancing voice and dance skills; the afternoons are dedicated to rehearsal. The Triple Threat intensive performs on our Cargill Stage.
