The 2026-27 Season will be announced soon, and will include great titles with roles for young actors. Work with Playhouse directors to get the experience necessary to be comfortable in auditions. Participation in the course does not guarantee a role but will acquaint students with scenes from the shows, available roles and the audition procedure used at The Playhouse. This class will focus on the scene work from both plays and musicals in the upcoming Playhouse season.
*In Performance Academy, actors are taken through a more disciplined process: Auditioning, rehearsing, and performing a play to learn how to polish skills in a dynamic, challenging environment. Previous experience is not required, but is strongly encouraged. Performance Academy rehearsals move quickly and are generally more rigorous than other classes and camps, attendance is vital to the success of both the student and process.
