“I learned so much more about theatre history and how to
prepare properly for auditions and all the hard work that goes into that
career. I have become a better and more confident actress and dancer.”
“This intensive really focused on helping each individual
hone in on their potential as a performer, and ultimately on becoming a true
triple threat. I feel that I got the attention and mentoring that I needed to
kick start my future experiences with theater.”
“I had a great time in a professional, relaxed and
respectful atmosphere with teachers and students.”
“Triple Threat Training was seriously the most intensive
week-long training program that we have been part of."
