ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Now in our third summer, PROJECT BROADWAY carries on the same theater arts education PLAYHOUSE GREENHOUSE grows during the school year! Whether your child is a seasoned performer or new to the stage, each day will be full of artistic enrichment and learning. We keep our focus on the fundamentals of theater arts: storytelling through acting, voice and dance. While emphasis is placed on the performance discipline, students are encouraged to work as a time while exploring their own unique contributions to the performance. The results are improvements in self-esteem, stage presence, patience, confidence and self-control. The final performance takes place on the last day of classes on the Playhouse stage, followed by a pot-luck party for all cast members, family and friends.
At Playhouse Greenhouse, we’re growing great things: the very best in theater, dance, and voice training for the Greater Bridgeport Community at an affordable cost. We offer fun classes for young thespians between the ages of 5 and 15 years old that boost confidence, cooperation self-control while teaching the fundamentals of theater arts.
