"I just wanted you to know that you are one of the best human beings, and teachers I have ever known. You have left a positive mark on me as I go to college. Thank you for everything you gave us as students, especially all the little things you did you didn't have to do. My experience with Rising Stars will forever be a part of me.  Thank you!"

Outstanding.. they learn more in two weeks than they do in much longer programs!

Melissa Churchwell

Rising Stars was a true blessing for my daughter.  Her theater debut was amazing.  Her confidence and skill set grew so much in just a few short weeks and watching everything come together to a full production was incredible!

"Thank you for doing a wonderful job with those kids! I know Noah had a blast and can't wait to do it all again next year (along with his sister)! Thank you for everything you did and break a leg in your upcoming performances!"

We did this summer camp last year for the first time and my daughter loved it so much we're doing both Oz and The Llightning thief. They do require you to audition to get into the summer camp but it's a zoom they only need to sing like a few lines of one of their favorite songs could be any song and then the director just asked a few questions most likely the younger kids are always just part of the ensemble they do send you all the lyrics and songs ahead of time so you can get familiar with all of the music. They did a great job last year with The Addams family we really enjoyed it and loved it.
