Sessions will take place from June 21 – July 2, 2021, Monday through Friday, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The two-week program has a tuition of $150, with tuition assistance available, as well as a reduced price for siblings in the same household. Participants will be shipped music and materials needed for projects. Subjects include Chorus, Acting, Opera 101 (Opera History), Props & Sets, Wigs & Makeup, Costumes, Stage Management, and “Write Your Own Opera.” The classes will be led by professional singers, artists, directors, and technicians.
