DESCRIPTION
The Summer Performing Arts Institute Convention offers targeted instruction to participants based on age and skill level. Participants will choose between two options. The first option is an elective only option. Participants will attend elective classes on Thursday and Friday only (no performance, just training). The second choice is the elective classes and performance option which includes Thursday-Sunday training, and concludes with performances on Sunday. All participants in both options will choose age and skill level when registering.
LEVEL OPTIONS:
Beginner - The beginner level will be geared toward participants who are new to theater or have been in 5 or less productions.
Intermediate - The intermediate level will be geared toward participants who have been in 6-15 productions and attend classes.
Advanced - The advanced level will be geared toward participants who have been in over 15 productions. For dance, they have been actively taking multiple classes, and for voice, they are studying privately with a teacher. For acting, they have been in multiple sessions of Improv. Prior permission is necessary in order to enroll at the advanced level. Please contact musicaltheatreofanthem@gmail.com to request permission.
