Monday, July 8th we launch our exciting summer session at NEMPAC. First, our full-day kids musical theatre workshop begins bright and early with music, dance, singing and of course, rehearsals for their end of the week Peter Pan production. Other workshops include, drama, ballet, find your favorite instrument and more!

Next, our R.O.C.K.S.!!!- FREE interactive music workshops begins at 1pm with a workshop on Opera! Taught by Carla Maniscalco and Lindsay Conrad, two Boston based opera singers, this workshop will introduce participants to expressing emotion through operatic themes. Participants will learn about opera and walk away humming some of opera’s most popular tunes! All workshops relate to our summer concert series performances the same week! Two workshops will be run every Monday, 1:00 pm-2:00 pm (11 and up) and 2:30-3:30 (10 and younger). See our website for all our outreach, interactive summer music workshops.
