This group is led by professional live musical theater actor, Jacob Hoffman and a staff member. “Each class, we will spend time celebrating and learning more about America’s greatest invention: Musical Theatre.
Participants will explore musicals and their connection to other forms of entertainment. How does The Wizard of Oz influence its modern sibling, The Wiz? How do modern movie musicals borrow from their live counterparts (i.e. Hairspray live on Broadway vs. the many movie iterations of Hairspray)? We will travel from musical theatre’s infancy in the 1940s all the way to today’s hits, with fun trivia, guest appearances, and scene study sprinkled in along the way.
The fee covers 8 sessions for $170.
Wednesdays from 4:45 PM – 5:45 PM: October 15, 22, and 29, November 5, 12, and 19, December 3 and 10. Please note that we won’t meet on October 1, October 8, November 26, December 17, 24, and 31.
