WEST HARTFORD, CT – For students who love to perform, Playhouse on Park will offer a two-week full-day musical theatre program this summer. The program guides performers entering grades 3-8 in becoming triple threats!

The Young Actor Musical Theatre Preparatory Program gives older elementary and middle school students theatre instruction in a comfortable and professional setting. Students have daily classes in acting, music, and movement, plus rehearsals for their final showcase, which will feature them in all three disciplines. Students also have opportunities to develop and perform their own pieces. The faculty for this program includes Dawn Loveland, Kevin Barlowski, and Hillary Ekwall. Students also participate in master classes with visiting Broadway artists, including Janelle Robinson (Mary Poppins, Oklahoma, Show Boat) and Joel Newsome (The Producers, 42nd Street).

Upon completing the program, students should have the skills to create a compelling and engaging musical theatre performance.
