Middle School Theatre Program
The Middle School Theatre program has a place for everyone. We educate the whole child, turning thought into action from building blocks to technique, original work to student-centered projects, and inquiry. Theatre nurtures each child’s artistic vision and ambition. The student is at the center, in mind, body, and spirit.
Middle School Dance Program
The core of our Middle School Dance program is creative exploration leading to original dance-making, while simultaneously developing physical skills. Through dance exercises, improvisations, and collaborative choreography, students will strive to inhabit their bodies in a healthy, conscious, and creative way.
