WELCOME TO NEXT GENERATION SCHOOL OF THEATRE!

Each summer, the Hangar Theatre Next Generation School of Theatre offers elementary, middle, and high school students an unforgettable summer of training and fun in the performing arts!

With classes in acting, singing, and dancing, the Next Generation School creates a safe environment where campers are encouraged to develop new skills and friendships. Workshop instructors are professional artists who work nationally in the performing arts and teach the most current techniques in their disciplines. Camps begin in July and run through August.

Classes available for ages 8 to 18!

Last summer was another exciting one for the Hangar Theatre Next Generation School. We had an extraordinary response from campers who had a fantastic experience and want to come back for another summer! We made some big changes to provide more options for campers and more flexibility for families. The new three week HANGAR CAMP program was a huge success, the expansion of the HANGAR TEENS program into separate sessions of Acting Intensive and Musical Theatre Performance gave middle school students more opportunities, and our new COLLEGE PREP program gave high school students the skills to achieve their dreams.

Summer 2011 offers the following:

New choices
More flexibility
Perform in a Hangar Theatre production
Work with Broadway stars

Students can sign up for five week-long classes in such subjects as circus skills, magic, musical theatre singing, broadway style dance, advanced acting, movement and more. Sign up for a single class or join in for all five! Classes are offered to elementary, middle school and high school age groups. Classes will be taught by professional Hangar Theatre artists from Broadway and beyond!

Students can also sign up to be in the Hangar KIDDSTUFF production of Willy Wonka Junior. Roles will be available for all age groups! Classes begin July 5th and will be offered until July 29th. Individual class tuition is $125 for a single class. Sign up for all five for $550. Willy Wonka Junior rehearsal begins July 11th and performs August 4th-6th. Performance tuition is $400. Sign up for the show and all five classes for $900!

Due to the shortened class schedule the week of July 5-8, the Hangar is pleased to offer each student registered for those classes a VIP ticket voucher for any of our Mainstage shows. Upon registration, each student will be mailed one voucher for each class they are enrolled in during that week.

We are so excited about this summer! Please review the different classes to choose the right path for you! For more information, please do not hesitate to contact me at jesse@hangartheatre.org or (607) 273-8588 x19.
