A NOTE FROM OUR ARTISTIC DIRECTOR

Dear Performers,

I am thrilled to announce the first annual Musical Theater Performance Project presented by Broadway Dance Center, the place for serious aspiring dancers to study with Broadway veterans in the heart of New York City’s legendary theater district.

I have always wanted to capitalize on the resources offered in the Big Apple and the extraordinary skills of my talented colleagues to assemble the ultimate theater workshop for advanced performers – a workshop that couldn’t happen anywhere else but here. The concept of this intensive is unprecedented—students will take class and rehearse with a comprehensive array of industry professionals, learn virtually every aspect of the business, and showcase what they have learned in a performance for agencies and producers who cast Broadway shows.

My associates and I are so passionate about our craft and very excited to share with you an insider’s look at the business—we can’t wait to watch your performance go from great
to amazing!

All the best,

Joshua Bergasse
