Does a capella singing make you hum like an electric guitar? Do you walk down the aisles of your school with an eye to where would be a great spot for a 10-foot knee slide while belting out the chorus of the song in your head? This could be for you.
Come sing songs a la Glee and Pitch Perfect and make those inner visions come true! Work in unison with your fellow actors to create those scenes most just dream of. “Don’t Stop the Music” until you “Let it Whip” right. These are not just “Silly Love Songs”… well, ok, maybe some of them are. Let’s find the magic in you, and have fun with this.
