This class is also combined with a production of a main stage play TBD. Students will rehearse for this play in the final two hours of class.

BROADWAY DANCE CLASS

This class is a great way to keep students' musical theatre skills fresh for Imagine Works' Spring and Summer Musical Theatre classes or to prepare for an upcoming school audition. Students taking this class will not only leave more confident, but they will also gain greater flexibility to be even more expressive in their storytelling on the musical theatre stage.

*CANCELLATION POLICY*
If a cancellation must be made, please email or call us prior to 2 weeks of the first day of class/camp for a full refund. Please understand that if a cancellation is made with less than 2 weeks notice, no refund will be given since it will be difficult to fill that vacant spot.
*2 MISS POLICY*
We understand students get sick, go on vacation, or have family obligations. However, due to the intensive collaborative nature of our program, students enrolled in our performance workshops or summer camps cannot miss more than 2 day of rehearsals. Notice must be given in advance of rehearsal if a student will be missing that day.
