FAIRYTALES CLASS DESCRIPTION:

Our Fairytales class will take our little stars on an adventure with all their favorite fairytale characters from Beauty and the Beast, Snow White and friends and even some Dr. Seuss favorites too.  We work with our stars to create their characters and make them come to life on stage. And no performance at Spotlight is complete without singing and dancing. This class is perfect if your child loves music, dancing and performing. They will perform a mini showcase in the studio in December. Then they will have their big debut in May/June in a real NYC theater for friends and family to attend.

There will be a performance in December to show off all their new skills.  

IMPROV SPRING SEMESTER:
In Spotlight Sketch Comedy, we will use the fundamentals of Improv to create our own small sketch show (think Saturday Night Live, Jr.).
