The time commitment for the course is 6-8 hours per week, until the weeks before opening, when it increases to 8 (or more) hours per week. Classes are held in the early evenings at our studio in St. Andrew's Presbyterian church. Performances will take place in the Grand Theatre in the Baby Grand. Performance weeks are listed on the calendar.

We choose shows that have appeal to young people and that support large casts, and role sharing. Every student who enrols in the class is guaranteed a place on stage as an actor in the production. There are no prerequisites for enrolment - if you have an interest, we will train you! When possible, we share roles so that more students get a taste of being both chorus and a named role.

The class runs as closely as possible to how a professional production may run. The expectation for participation and focus is high. Parents will be asked to help with certain aspects of the process as well. The show is performed over a two-week run for a paying audience in a proper theatre, with lights, sound, set, costumes - the works!

Over the years, our musical theatre students have performed Sweeney Todd, Willy Wonka, Aladdin, Little Red Riding Hood, Snowdrops for Katya, Little Mermaid, Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, Into the Woods JR, Shrek JR, James and the Giant Peach JR, The Lion King JR, and Mary Poppins JR.

The process of rehearsing a show helps to create bonds that last a lifetime, and our students and their families are proud of the results of their hard work.
