Norwalk Wall Street Theater Launches Teen Musical Theater Program

NORWALK, CT – The Wall Street Theater, which recently opened its doors after undergoing an extensive renovation, is launching its Teen Musical Theater program. The program aims to provide area teens with a theatrical background in the arts to learn the components of mounting a high-energy musical production.

Led by working professionals in the industry, participants will receive instruction from pre-production through stage performance of FAME the Musical, according to a release.

“We are excited to welcome area teens – ages 12-18 – to learn from professionals who are currently working in the theater,” Theater Artistic Director Billy Blanks, Jr. said in a release. “Our students will experience real training in acting, dance, voice and backstage and front of house technical aspects. They will all participate in the audition process and move into each stage of production with our skilled team of instructors, ultimately leading up to three days of performances of this fun musical!”

The six-week program will begin Feb. 19 and run through March 30, with workshops taking place Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 4 to 8 p.m,, and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Final rehearsals will take place the week of April 1, with the final three performances the weekend of April 6.

Participation fees are $500 per teen, plus a $75 non-refundable registration fee. Payment plans are available, as are partial and full scholarships.
