In the Hollywood Showcase Intensive, young singers will embark on a transformative journey in musical theatre with an emphasis on individual vocal performance. Youth will connect, learn, and develop their voices in a supportive and inspiring environment.
This immersive program is designed for aspiring artists to hone their skills through focused practice on solos and duets, guided by experienced instructors. Instruction areas will include vocal techniques, stage presence, and collaborative harmony.
This program will culminate in a vibrant showcase in which participants will perform the solos and/or duets they’ve prepared throughout the semester. The showcase will provide singers with the opportunity to express their creativity, demonstrate their growth, and build confidence on stage in front of a live audience. The song selections for this program will include music from The Princess and the Frog and Hamilton.
Welcome to the Hollywood Stars Youth Choir, where young singers shine brightly! This dynamic new program is dedicated to nurturing the next generation of vocal talent through engaging choral training and individual skill development. Over 10 sessions, our passionate instructors will guide singers in mastering essential vocal techniques, harmonization, and stage presence, while fostering a love of music and an appreciation for teamwork.
The song selections for this program will center on the theme of ‘celebration’ to commemorate both the 100th anniversary of the city of Hollywood and December’s many magical holidays. This program will culminate in a celebratory holiday recital in which participants will perform the solos, duets, and choral pieces they’ve prepared throughout the semester.
Join us on this exciting journey as we unite young artists to form Hollywood’s first youth choir, creating beautiful music and making unforgettable memories in the heart of Hollywood!
In this dynamic class, students will explore a variety of art forms—from literature, painting, and sculpting to digital media and beyond. With the guidance of experienced professional artists, students will develop their own unique artistic voices while discovering new techniques and styles. At the end of the semester, families are invited to an exciting Art Showcase, where students' masterpieces will be on display, and a special performance from our talented Stage Kids and ENCORE! programs.
Whether you are an up-and-coming artist or a passionate parent looking to ignite your child’s creativity, Arts Club will expose participants to a variety of mediums and help your creative dreams soar!
