MORE INFO ON EXCEL TEEN INTENSIVE:

Broadway Workshop’s Excel Teen Intensive (Sessions 1 & 2) is a five-day summer program geared toward our older students (ages 13-19) with a strong passion for the performing arts. While every Excel student will study the three disciplines of musical theatre (acting, singing and dancing), this program allows students to choose a major (Acting or Voice). Excel Teen Intensive is Broadway Workshop’s most popular program and has kept parents and students coming back each year.

Vocal majors will spend their morning session working with with their Broadway guest teacher on their musical theater/pop song choices, while Acting majors will focus on monologue performance. The afternoon sessions will allow students in each major to stretch themselves with special classes including; audition prep, on-camera, improv, dance, Q&A’s and more. Vocal Majors will have one monologue workshop and Acting Majors will have one vocal/song workshop.

In addition to their core classes Excel students will take master classes with New York’s top casting directors, Broadway actors, musical directors and choreographers. Broadway Workshop’s core teachers are highly regarded professional actors/teaching artists who have starred in major Broadway shows, on television and in film. Students will also be part of a final showcase for industry on the final day of the EXCEL TEEN INTENSIVE.

Students can register for both Session 1 and Session 2 of Teen Excel. If you are interested in being part of the two back to back programs, we suggest you choose a different major for each session.
