This event will allow students and parents to learn about the programs that ÐÔ¸£ÎåÔÂÌì's School of Music and School of Theatre and Dance offer at their own pace! Students can come and go as they please!

Students will have the opportunity to sit in on classes and experience firsthand what it takes to be a student in the performing arts. We’ll also have opportunities for guests to perform with some of our ensembles and take part in Q&A’s with our students and faculty. There will also be an opportunity to take part in an audition workshop to help prepare them for any upcoming auditions, whether for a school production, the next step of auditioning for a music or theatre program, or even professional auditions.

The School of Theatre and Dance invites you to attend their 26-27 mainstage productions! This performance is open to all students interested in Theatre, Musical Theatre or Theatre Design Tech.

February 25-March 7 | E. Turner Stump Theatre

Set in a 1930s European perfumery, we meet shop clerks, Amalia and Georg, who, more often than not, don't see eye to eye. After both respond to a "lonely hearts advertisement" in the newspaper, they now live for the love letters that they exchange, but the identity of their admirers remains unknown. Join Amalia and Georg to discover the identity of their true loves... and all the twists and turns along the way!

"She Loves Me" is presented by arrangement with Musical Theatre International.
