Our students have been recognized nationally for their excellence, taking home awards from the Junior Theatre Festival in both Atlanta and Sacramento. Master Academy students have appeared in Music Circus productions, the California Musical Theatre Broadway Gala, iTheatrics Choreography DVDs (filmed in New York), iTheatrics Summer Academies workshoping new Jr Titles, and graduates are pursuing Theatre degrees across the country at some of the most respected institutions.
Students also receive national exposure by attending the Junior Theatre Festivals - performing for leading Broadway Professionals and executives including Freddie Gershon (Co-Chairman - MTI), Sir Cameron Mackintosh (Chairman - MTI), Drew Cohen (President - MTI), Tim McDonald (President - iTheatrics), Tom Schumacher (President - Disney Theatricals), Pasek and Paul (Composers - Dear Evan Hansen, La La Land, Greatest Showman), Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez (Composers - Frozen, CoCo), and many many more.
Students have also had the opportunity to perform on a Broadway Stage during a trip to New York City, and have a mock audition with special guests.
