Heartbeat
Our national award-winning show choir combo is appropriately named ‘The Heartbeat’ of what happens on the show choir stage as they are the pulse and energy of our singer/dancers. Our combo is open to students in grades 9-12 and begin their year with us in the beginning of the school year. Their schedule is light through the fall and early winter but will fill up throughout January-March.
Nuts & Bolts
Our national award-winning tech crew is known as ‘Nuts & Bolts.’ These students are the behind-the-scenes unsung (get it?) heroes who make our sets look amazing and facilitate the shows through sound, lighting, and special effects (and sometimes a surprise cameo!) Our tech crew is open to students in grades 9-12 and begin their year with us in the beginning of the school year. Their schedule is light through the fall and early winter but will fill up throughout January-March.
