2 Raise the Curtain! Step into the spotlight at The Rose! No matter what your interests, your young performer can find their place in the spotlight with two outstanding programs designed to encourage a love of performing. The Rose offers two paths of theater education for children ages Whether your child chooses DRAMA at The Rose or BROADWAY at The Rose, you can be assured that your young artist will learn and grow while having the best time of their lives. Whether your child is taking their first steps on the stage or has already landed a leading role, the performing arts classes at The Rose will provide your child with theatrical opportunities unlike any other all while having a whole lot of fun. Your child will be learning from some of the best educators in the region. Rose teachers include professional actors, accomplished dancers, award-winning playwrights, highly-decorated directors, renowned choreographers and more and if you look closely, you will see those teachers on stage in your favorite main stage show! Both departments provide students with professional instruction by many of the same actors you see on stage! Classes encourage creativity and imagination, while enriching the understanding and enjoyment of theater. Many classes offer performance opportunities and all classes promote ensemble work and skill development. So get started today and raise the curtain on your child s talent! 2

3 DRAMA at THE ROSE classes promote creativity and provide students with an environment to explore their talent and imagination. In our classes, you can expect to use your body to tell a story, learn new ways to use your voice, stretch your imagination and have a lot of fun while doing it. The focus of DRAMA at THE ROSE classes is the process of creating theater. While students will share what they ve learned at the end of the session, the emphasis is on the week-to-week progress rather than on a final performance. This gives students a strong foundation in the theater while gaining an appreciation for the arts that will enrich their lives. Are you a DRAMA student? I like to meet new friends and have fun! I like to act out characters and create new ones! I want to learn about the creative process of theater! I like to draw set designs, costumes and create puppets! I want to be a performer! I like dramatic play! I like to use my imagination! I want to act in a play! I have taken a drama class OR I would like to try one for the first time! If you answered YES to any of the above, you belong in DRAMA at THE ROSE! Come play with us! BROADWAY at THE ROSE is a complete musical theater, voice, acting, and dance training program for students who just want to perform! In our classes, you can expect to perfect your skills and prepare to take the stage at school, in community productions, or maybe even in a play here at The Rose! We offer two different options for BROADWAY students. Kids in our BROADWAY Academy get an introduction to musical theater, voice, acting and dance with year-long, weekly classes. For students who live for the stage, we recommend our BROADWAY Intensive track, which gives students an in-depth training of all things musical theater with classes multiple days a week. Both programs culminate with a spring concert on The Rose main stage. Are you a BROADWAY student? I like to meet new friends and have fun! I want to become a triple threat! I want to learn how to audition! I want to improve my dance, acting and/or vocal technique! I want to be a performer! I want to become a cast member of The Rose Brigade! I want to be a part of Transcendtrix Company! I have taken a dance or singing class before OR I would like to try one for the first time! If you answered YES to any of the above, you belong in BROADWAY at THE ROSE! Step into the spotlight! Of course, you can be both! Come have fun with us & discover your inner performer! 3
