west michigan theater company - summer theater intensive

6th-12th Gr

We’re thrilled to announce the launch of our new West Michigan Theater Company, along with our very first theatre intensive! Over a focused, two-week session, participants will receive expert training from a directing team (Robert Torgerson, David Miller, Nancy Clyde) that has produced and directed hundreds of shows, all eager to inspire and guide beginning and experienced performers alike. Throughout the intensive you’ll have age and experience-appropriate instruction in acting, song performance, scene preparation, harmonies, vocal/dialect work, stage combat, acting techniques, dance for actor-singers, theatrical movement, vocal health, audition prep — plus scenic painting, digital lighting, theatre sound, and overall theatrical design. At the end of the program, everyone will perform in at least one number in our debut “Broadway Revue Concert,” taking place Saturday, June 20 (details being released soon). We can’t wait to help young artists find their voice, grow their skills, and shine on stage as part of something new and exciting! Register based on 2026-27 grade level. Participants should bring two snacks, a water bottle, and sack lunch daily.

West Michigan Theatre Co. — a community theatre company founded to bring quality theatrical performance opportunities to our West Michigan area, with a home in Zeeland — is proud to invite you to be part of this inaugural journey.
