acting technique, character analysis, and technical theatre appreciation. These “Theatre Workshop” classes
are all-inclusive. Students will audition, be cast, learn technique, and rehearse the play all within the class
time each week! All classes will PERFORM on the Southern Repertory Theatre stage, just like the pros
do!”

All classes will take place at Southern Rep at The Shops at Canal Place, 365 Canal Street. Validated parking is available for up to 4 hours, for just $2. Parents and campers will be informed whether they should go to our theatre (3rd Floor of Canal Place) or our rehearsal studio (4th floor of the office tower, connected to Canal Place).
Frequently Asked Questions
When is the payment due?
½ half payment is required to hold your camper?fs spot in the class. For session one, the remainder is due by June 1st, and session two, the remainder is due by July 1st. Online-payments are only a pay-in-full option. (Can you please change all to: "1/2 half payment is required to hold your camper's spot in the class. For the FALL 2011 Musical Theatre Workshops, the remainder is due by October 1st. For the SPRING 2012 Musical Theatre Workshops, the remainder is due by February 1st.
What is the instructor/child ratio?
In classes, approximately 10 to 1. Usually this runs a little lower in pre-care and after-care (more in the range of 7 to 1).
How many kids typically are in each production?
There will be 20 to a maximum of 30 kids in each session. Some roles will be double cast to make sure we make sure each camper gets to shine!
Do the campers audition for roles?
The kids do audition - in a very friendly, supportive, learning environment.
Have the directors/instructors been named yet?
Not yet. They will be local theatre professionals and educators.
What about parking or picking up/dropping off?
We ask parents to come in on the first day for a short orientation. We encourage you to park in the indoor Canal Place mall parking. We are able to validate parking for up to four hours, so that it's just $2 to park.
After the first day, we arrange for a drop off and pick up location on Iberville Street, though campers/parents MUST BE ON TIME to take advantage of this option.
Is the class fee all inclusive or will there be more expenses?
The only additional cost is tickets to the performances. These will be available at $10 each. You may also choose to order a DVD of the final performance, also available at $10 each. Also, parents are responsible for their child's costume not to exceed $25 and their make-up for the show.
Are the children that participate in this program typically children who have never done a stage performance? Or do experienced kids sign up, too?
There is a real mix. Among the younger kids, it probably leans more toward first time, but we really get a bit of every range.
What do the kids need to bring?
Campers should bring a lunch and a water bottle. Campers who participate in after-care should bring an additional snack.
