BAMTheatre After School Program NOW FULL – We are thrilled to announce that BAMTheatre will be offering an exciting new after school program, Thursdays, from April 8th-May 26th!  This theatre class is the perfect theatre experience for elementary school performers! Appropriate for beginners as well as more experienced actors, this enrichment class will provide theatre and performance training to all involved – right at Pierce School! Throughout the program, students will study the foundations of musical theatre (singing, acting, and dancing), with each class having a special focus. Students will also apply the tools and practices they are learning to rehearse a small showcase presentation which will include a medley of songs from The Greatest Showman. Family and friends are invited to view the presentation on the final class day. ***Due to the popularity of this offering, it is now FULL but we look forward to having BAMTheatre back for more programs in the future. If you would like to be added to the waitlist please email: info@bamtheatre.com. To register: https://ticketpeak.co/bam/classes
