MARY POPPINS IS COMING TO THE STUDIO!
Tuesday, March 27, 2018 by Veronica Hodgson | Production Class
LOOK WHO'S BLOWING INTO THE STUDIO! We are SOOOO excited that Mary Poppins, Jr. will be our summer show!
Based on one of the most popular Disney movies of all time and the Broadway musical that played for over 2,500 performances and received multiple Olivier and Tony Awards nominations, Disney and Cameron Mackintosh's Mary Poppins is capturing hearts in a whole new way: as a practically perfect Broadway Junior musical!
The jack-of-all trades, Bert, introduces us to England in 1910 and the troubled Banks family. Young Jane and Michael have sent many a nanny packing before Mary Poppins arrives on their doorstep. Using a combination of magic and common sense, she must teach the family members how to value each other again. Mary Poppins takes the children on many magical and memorable adventures, but Jane and Michael aren't the only ones upon whom she has a profound effect. Even grown-ups can learn a lesson or two from the nanny who advises that "Anything can happen if you let it."
Registration is going on now for this super fun production. Early tuition is $285 before May 1st. After May 1st, tuition is $325. When you register, the tuition for summer will appear on your next invoice. You can pay it at that time in full, or you can go diretly into your account any time and pay the full amount or an installment. As long as the tuition is paid by May 1st, the discounted tuition will apply - even if paid in installments.
Our regular discounts apply if you have multiple family members registering. I will have to manually enter the discounts into your account, so please shoot me a text whe you registered so that I can do that.
Scripts and CDs will be available May 1st at the latest.
Our first class will be Monday June 4 from 9-12. Classes will run the entire month of June Mon-Thurs 9-12. The final week, we will have some early evening rehearsals as well. The performance will take place on June 28-30.
THE ARISTOCATS KIDS!
Monday, March 19, 2018 by Veronica Hodgson | Performance
In the heart of Paris, a kind and eccentric millionairess wills her entire estate to Duchess, her high-society cat, and her three little kittens. Laughs and adventure ensue as the greedy, bumbling butler pulls off the ultimate catnap caper. Now it's up to the rough-and-tumble alley cat, Thomas O'Malley, and his band of swingin' jazz cats to save the day!
The Aristocats KIDS is being presented by our youngest students, and they are so excited. We can't wait for everyone to see the amazing work they are doing. This is a great show to bring family and friends to! The Aristocats KIDS play April 12-14, come and join us!

Mary Ann Kehler Workshops March 9 & 10
Saturday, March 3, 2018 by Veronica Hodgson | Workshops
Connecting with the Magic: Preparing for Auditions
This unique workshop will give you the tools to be able to create successful auditions, as you explore the acting method taught by Broadway Training Intensive. Bring sheet music marked with your favorite 16-32 bar cut and be ready to perform! If you're not yet feeling confident as a singer, you are welcome to observe or to bring a one-minute monologue. Ages 8-13 will meet Saturday 3/10/18 from 9:00 am to 10:30 am. Tuition is $35 ($45 at the door). Ages 14-Adult will meet Saturday 3/10/18 from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm. Tuition is $45 ($55 at the door)
College Audition Seminar
This 90-minute seminar is free for parents and their high school student -- the only requirement is that the student must have attended one of Mary Ann's workshops or taken a one-hour private lesson with Mary Ann. The seminar is presented as a public service by Broadway Training Intensive and Hodgson Studio of Music & Drama -- our goal is to help high school students and their parents be aware of the college audition process for musical theatre, acting, and commercial music. You'll learn about degree types, how to determine which programs are likely to be the best fit for you, the application process, the difference between auditioning on campus and at College Unified Auditions, what to prepare for auditions, and, most importantly, "Is a career in theatre or music what I really want?" This seminar will meet Friday 3/9/18 from 7:30 pm to 9:00 pm.
