Stories take the stage.

Our 5-week Creative Drama class for grades 1–3 is an acting built around great books and will be taught by class taught by Broadway actor and BAC founder, Denise Summerford. We will use short stories as the starting point for original scenes. Students will develop characters, decide what happens next, and rehearse and perform their work with classmates.

Along the way, young actors build real confidence by sharing ideas and performing, and learn to collaborate as an ensemble.

No experience required, just a willingness to jump in.

Calling all Singers who dread the dance call!✨

This class is built just for YOU. Each week, you’ll learn a Broadway-style dance combo from a different show giving you the tools to pick up choreography quickly and confidently execute it (even if you don’t think of yourself as a dancer first).

*** PERFECT FOR THOSE AUDITIONING FOR
COLLEGE PROGRAMS!!! ***

Get yourself conditioned to pick up those combos and execute them quickly!!! 

Led by a Broadway performer who is a singer but still always crushed the dance audition and she will share the tricks, mindset, and practice that make the difference.

Think of it as your dance call confidence booster!!! Fun, supportive, and full of “aha” moments. By the end, you won’t just survive a dance callback… you’ll own it.

🌟 Because singers can Dance Call too.

Whether it's a classic monologue, a scene from your dream role, or a song that speaks to you, this workshop is your space to dive deep and discover what makes great performance work.

Actor and Director John Summerford guides you through a dynamic, hands-on approach to acting that emphasizes authentic storytelling and bold choices. You'll explore:

  • Script analysis – Uncover the layers beneath the words

  • Character development – Build believable, compelling characters from the inside out

  • Audition technique – Walk into the room with confidence and clarity

  • Material selection – Choose pieces that showcase your unique strengths

  • Performance fundamentals – Sharpen your technique with practical, actionable tools

This isn't about perfection—it's about exploration, risk-taking, and growth. Whether you're returning to acting after time away, preparing for auditions, or simply want to stretch your skills in a supportive environment, you'll find a welcoming community of fellow artists committed to the craft.

All scenes, monologues, and songs welcome—from theater, musicals, film, and television.
