SMTI Preprofessional fosters excellence, artistry, and a love of musical theatre in performers age 14–20. Our 2021 program will focus on themes of individual empowerment and self-creation, and engaging as a community of learners through art-making, observation, discussion, and reflection. From 9am-5pm, students will work during technique classes and in small group labs to explore scene and song text, comedic improv, on-camera technique, and vocal health, as well as creating movement variations on given choreography.  Each day, students will present individual content based on the new skills they are learning. Students should come to class in clothes that allow them to move easily. They should be prepared to participate in class sessions in a place that is well-lit and free from distractions, and should have a means to take notes during class sessions.  Our final pre-recorded showcase performance is developed, and the material chosen, with each specific participant in mind. This video showcase will serve as the final performance of the Intensive, with viewing links distributed to students, and a group watch-party!
