FALL/WINTER 2025 – Music Theatre Intensive (Advanced Training) – MAINSTAGE! Ages 9-17

ON WITH THE SHOW! 

CFT’s Music Theatre Intensive and Mainstage Performance

CFT’s most popular program!  From audition to the final curtain call and all that happens in between, students continue to stretch their performance muscles and hone their acting, vocal and dance skills while rehearsing for a CFT mainstage musical!   Set in a safe and supportive environment, students are encouraged to take risks, step beyond their comfort level to continue to discover their capabilities as performers.  Students have the opportunity to work with professional directors, technicians and designers and experience the ins and outs of a high-quality, professional production.

We haven’t announced our fall/winter show choice yet but, whatever we choose, we can guarantee that it will be a blast!  Here are a couple ideas that will offer LOTS of opportunity for our littles, our middles and our teens!  We’ll see!
