Tuition: $390.00 (Early bird discount: $350 by August 15th)

Brand new show! Pilot Production! OFC is proud to be one of the first theatres to pilot the brand-new musical, Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas Jr! Under the direction of Vivian Bayubay McLaughlin who plays Ma Otter in the Broadway in Brighton production (as well as from Disney’s Out of the Box TV Series), students will be part of the development of this brand-new Jr musical and perform on the Broadway in Brighton set.

About the show: It’s three days before Christmas and Mayor Fox has just announced a Christmas talent contest with a grand prize of fifty dollars! Meanwhile, times are tough for Ma and Emmet Otter since Pa passed away, and winning that prize money would allow them to secretly buy each other a Christmas gift. Emmet considers forming a jug-band with his friends, but in order to do that he’ll have to put a hole in Ma’s washtub. The problem is, Ma earns money by doing other folks’ laundry in the washtub. Ma thinks about hocking Pa’s old toolbox so she can make a costume for the contest, but Emmet uses those tools to do odd jobs. As Christmas Eve and the talent contest quickly approach, will Ma and Emmet sacrifice what little they have, or will their Christmas wishes come true?

With an infectiously unforgettable score from four-time Grammy winner, three-time Oscar winner and musical theatre giant, Stephen Schwartz, Pippin is the story of one young man's journey to be extraordinary. Winner of four 2013 Tony Awards including Best Musical Revival, this updated circus-inspired version of Pippin continues to captivate and appeal to the young at heart throughout the world.

Heir to the Frankish throne, the young prince Pippin is in search of the secret to true happiness and fulfillment. He seeks it in the glories of the battlefield, the temptations of the flesh and the intrigues of political power (after disposing of his father, King Charlemagne the Great). In the end, though, Pippin finds that happiness lies not in extraordinary endeavors, but rather in the unextraordinary moments that happen every day.

Please note: Students may participate in multiple classes and programs with OFC at the same time.

The Tony and Olivier Award-winning show is one of the few musicals to win an Academy Award for Best Picture and is widely hailed as a true theatrical masterpiece by actors and audience members alike.

The streets of Victorian England come to life as Oliver, an orphan in a workhouse, becomes the neglected apprentice of an undertaker. Oliver escapes to London and finds acceptance amongst a group of petty thieves and pickpockets led by the elderly Fagin. When Oliver is captured for a theft that he did not commit, the benevolent victim, Mr. Brownlow takes him in. Fearing the safety of his hideout, Fagin employs the sinister Bill Sikes and the sympathetic Nancy to kidnap him back, threatening Oliver’s chances of discovering the true love of a family.

The Troll thespians in Poppy’s company live by their motto: the show must go on.

Students should choose to sing one of the following song excerpts: Middle of a Moment from James and the Giant Peach or Quiet from Matilda. Memorized would be best, but not required. They should bring three things: a notebook, the lyrics (if needed) and a pencil.

Through interactive exercises and guided coaching, students will learn how to connect emotionally to their song, bring out the story in the lyrics, and make bold character-driven choices on stage. We know acting is important and we know singing is important – how do we put them together? What facial expressions, body movement, and bold choices will help bring the character to life and tell the best story?

Whether preparing for auditions, building confidence, or simply wanting to grow as a performer, this workshop with Miss Kathy will give students the tools to combine strong vocals with authentic acting. Perfect for all levels and is a great way to sharpen performance skills in a fun, supportive environment.
