The Program
|
Students will live on campus at the beautiful New Hampton School and participate in a highly-focused curriculum of musical theatre training. Each week will include classes in acting, music, and dance taught by industry professionals and rehearsals for a fully realized musical (title TBA) to be performed for the public at the conclusion of the program. Each week will also include small group "studio time" in which students work on their individual "rep" with instructors. Additionally, students will participate in Q&A sessions with professional musical theatre actors, sit in on professional rehearsals, see a Winnipesaukee Playhouse Professional Company production, and go on frequent excursions around the state-- some to extend the learning we're doing... and some just to relax after a week of hard work.
Important Note: This rigorous residential program is intended for students who have already had some theatre experience and are looking to challenge themselves and deepen their education. It is not intended for beginners. |

Rolling Auditions/Admission
We are now accepting applications/auditions!
Auditions will be conducted virtually this year (see details below) and admissions decisions will be on a “rolling” basis. This means that we will evaluate applications as they come in and respond as soon as we are able to evaluate them.
A maximum of 14 students will be admitted to this program. This will ensure every student receives a lot of individualized instruction… but it also means that the program has the potential to fill up quickly. Highly qualified students who wait too long to submit audition videos may find themselves on the waiting list.
Once a student’s application is filled out and their audition video is submitted, both will be evaluated by our admissions team. We will then reach out to you to schedule an interview (over zoom.) Following the interview, students will receive a response to their application as quickly as possible—ideally within a week. Those who are admitted will be asked to pay the non-refundable $300 deposit within 14 days to accept the offer and officially reserve their place in the program.
Detailed communication regarding housing, transportation, dietary needs, etc. will follow.
