Sample Courses in Performing Arts

"We learned all about the illusion of stage fighting - how to make punches look real. It was the most exhausting and yet most exhilarating acting and fighting I have ever done in my life."
– Steve Scott

"Most often when you think of a lecture class you imagine hundreds of kids in an auditorium with a professor rattling off boring information on something you couldn't care less about. This is the total opposite. It is the kind of class that, when you're finished, you won't even realize how much you know until you find yourself rattling off names of directors, choreographers, scene designers and stars of major musicals like they are second nature."
– Scott Johnson
