Ben said: “The Riverside Youth Theatre’s (RYT) Musical Theatre Summer School online is a nurturing and fun environment for children and young people providing dynamic and high quality training in acting, singing and dance for musical theatre.”
Participants aged between 8-18 will benefit from online skills classes, delivered online via ZOOM. All students will have the opportunity to take part in a series of lockdown-friendly performance projects – ensemble singing videos, recorded acting projects and dance videos to create their very own virtual musical theatre showcase.
The summer school runs from August 10-15.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there is reduced capacity of 15 children per session (instead of 30) which will mean each child will have more one-on-one time with tutors than before.
