In keeping with Prospect’s mission to support the next generation of musical theater artists, this program is an opportunity for students to build their performance skills by working with a professional director and music director to present a new musical revue, premiering original songs and monologues written expressly for young people by some of NYC’s most exciting emerging composers and lyricists.  In addition, the intensive will offer a variety of workshops and coaching sessions, as well as master classes with Broadway performers, to deepen general knowledge of theatre practice, strengthen vocal and acting technique, and enhance overall confidence.
