DESCRIPTION:
Calling all future Broadway belters! This summer we delve deep into the world of Broadway musicals--and bring our students back to Raue Center and into the big spotlight! Our Summer Musical Theatre Intensive will include two 2-hour virtual rehearsals with our staff of theatre pros, focusing on short group showcases of the best of Broadway musicals from the Golden Age to today--then we’ll move our rehearsals to the theatre, where we’ll work with Raue Center’s renowned technical team to turn these showcases into a professionally filmed musical mini-movie! We’ll then screen the final product for our students and their families in a “red carpet premiere” celebration at Raue Center, where we’ll screen our presentations on the big screen! Students will expand their musical horizons, learn the behind-the-scenes process that goes into producing a filmed performance, and enjoy their turn in the spotlight!
DETAILS AND PREREQUISITES (PLEASE READ!):
After registration, students will be sent a short piece of music and an accompaniment track--this will be used to film an “audition” for placement in one of three ensembles. All registered students will be part of the show--this is for placement only.
Each ensemble will rehearse separately in a two-hour block, on an assigned day for all 4 weeks of the program (Tuesdays, Wednesdays or Fridays, 10 AM-12 PM). Due to the short timeline and the ensemble nature of the material, students must have NO conflicts with their assigned rehearsal day. Students must also feel comfortable singing solo material, and must be able to memorize their song within the rehearsal period time. This intensive program will require students to rehearse material on their own outside of class time, so previous musical experience is a plus!
When you register, please indicate if a particular day of the week is best for your student and we will work to accommodate you--but we can only accept students who can make the commitment to all 4 weeks of the program on their assigned date. If you have any questions regarding this, please contact us directly at [email protected].
During our in-person weeks at Raue Center, students will be masked at all times while rehearsing and performing--masks for the performance will be provided. We will also be taking temperatures upon arrival, cleaning and sanitizing frequently, and following all necessary social distancing protocols while rehearsing and filming the showcases. Please do not attend in-person rehearsals if you or someone in your household is exposed to COVID-19. We take the safety and health of our students and staff very seriously, and you will be asked to review and follow all COVID-19 safety procedures while in our space--these will be available for your review when you register.
RED CARPET PREMIERE PARTY! Students participating in our Summer Musical Theatre Intensive will be invited to take pictures, enjoy refreshments, and view the final product on the big screen at Raue Center at our red-carpet celebration, Thursday, August 12 at 7 PM! The filmed final performance will also be available to purchase on Vimeo On Demand! Further details on this event will be communicated once registration closes--but save the date for a big party!
Financial aid available for all Sage Studio programs - contact us at [email protected] for more information.
Registration deadline for ALL summer classes is June 11 at 4 PM!
