Get creative
Our Musical Theatre Workshops are the perfect way to let your hair down before the start of another week.
For three 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.
We will have with two groups of up to 25 people: one for people with little or no experience; and one for people with more experience. Our small groups are a great chance to meet people in Brussels with similar interests.
For all aged 14 and over.
Just for fun
Each term runs for 10 weeks. You will get expert tuition in acting, singing and dancing. We will not work towards a performance as such but we will end the term with a showcase for friends and family.
The Workshops will run 10am - 1pm (intermediate) or 11am - 2pm (beginner) on Sundays at Studio Empain, Rue de la Presse 9.
Cost: €295 for the term, payable upon registration.
