Main Street Academy

Main Street Academy, Established in 2018. Logo is a shield divided into 4 quadrants: music notes, theater happy/sad faces, dancer posing, set construction/design

Spring 2025 Registration is now open!!

The Main Street Academy is a 10 week program dedicated to developing the next generation of theatre artists both on stage and behind the scenes. Every week, the students get a half hour workshop on some aspect of theatrical production, whether it's vocal health, audition technique, lighting and design. Besides learning their material for the show, the students are also involved in creating some of the props and sets for the show. 

Whether your children aspire to become professional entertainers, actors, singers, dancers, technical crew, or just want to experience the joy of theatre, we welcome them to be part of our Main Street community. We are dedicated to enriching young people’s lives through their involvement in the Performing Arts.

Our classes are designed to heighten the young performer’s confidence, imagination, creativity, and install a strong, positive self-image to help your child develop poise and ease when working in a theatrical enviornment. By being a part of a group that works towards a creative goal, students learn teamwork, cooperation, and responsibility.
