Classes are the place for performers to dive into deeper technique on a weekly basis. Classes, different than a full play/musical production, offer a space for students to learn and explore various disciplines in the performing arts in a safe and inclusive environment! All classes perform in a culminating performance at the end of the semester. All classes take place at Southside Center for the Arts, Room 105.

Additionally, students will focus on communicating story/character through their movement. This class performs in the end of semester showcase.
