Centre Square Musical Theatre Troupe
Fall 2019 Musical Theatre Troupe
Troupe DetailsCentre Square’s new Musical Theatre Troupe (MT^2) is a select group of students displaying excellence in the performing arts. MT^2 provides students with training in musical theatre performance through rehearsals involving vocal, acting, and dance technique.
This semester, members of MT^2 will learn and perform song selections from Junie B. Jones The Musical. Class meetings will serve as rehearsals for music, staging, and choreography. A strong emphasis will be placed on singing and musicality, as our end-of-semester performance will exclusively feature a musical performance. Troupe membership will be determined by audition only (see audition details).
