Be a Star on Sundays
Get creative
Our Musical Theatre Workshops are the perfect way to let your hair down before the start of another week.
For a few hours hours on a Sunday, our expert workshop leaders will work with you in three different disciplines: acting, singing and dancing.
Meet new people
Our Musical Theatre Workshops are for people who want to get singing, acting and dancing in a non-judgemental setting. Our workshop leaders enable everyone to feel comfortable. We welcome people with little or no prior experience in musical theatre.
Our groups are capped at 20 people. Our small groups are a great chance to meet people in Brussels with similar interests.
For all aged 16 and over.
Just for fun
For the Academy, each MODULE runs for 10 weeks.
In MODULE 1, we take time to focus on building your technique and skills in each of the disciplines. For the higher levels, there will be chances to practice integrating the disciplines towards the end of the term.
In MODULE 2, we will work towards a mini-showcase that you will perform to an invited audience. There will be more integration during this term, with the Advanced Level having the chance to progress on acting through song.
In MODULE 3, we will rehearse for a Community End-of-year Showcase that will be performed at Zinnema in Anderlecht.
