Enrichment / After School

After School Enrichment (Grades K-5)

Our enrichment classes are a fun-filled educational experience. In a supportive environment students of various ages and skill level work together to put on a production. While there is a final show each term, this class is more about the process of getting there. Students will be developing skills such as self confidence, team work, projecting their voice, memorization, study habits, and growing creatively. Students in the musical theatre classes are given parts in the show and do not audition. They are placed in parts that allow them to feel safe and yet still be pushed creatively. Students leave our enrichment classes having had a unique and enjoyable experience. Currently at schools in Walled Lake, Bloomfield Hills, Huron Valley, Canton, Novi, West Bloomfield, Brookfield Academy Troy, Hillside, St  Williams, and Forest Campuses in Michigan. In California we are at Manhattan Academy, St Martin of Tours and Redondo Beach. Check your school or Community Ed for registration, cost, day/time!
