Workshop registration is on a first-come, first-served basis. You do not need
to audition to get into the workshop as casting happens on the first two
days. We will accept between 35 and 50 students. Once the session is full

next person on the waiting list and offer them the spot.

The Director and Musical Director teach the students one song from the

quality and projection.
