ABOUT THE SCHOOL
"Stars of Tomorrow" was chosen for a very specific reason. Success doesn't happen overnight. It takes hard work, discipline, and confidence. Students here work with top instructors and are challenged. Classes are limited in size so that in each class everyone works. Our students are prepared for auditions when they are sent out and our focus is on the work and the coaching, not on costumes and glitzy productions.
All shows are more like open classrooms in which every student is featured and the focus is on them. Students are required to attend classes in a uniform tee shirt or sweatshirt. This has been proven effective in eliminating competition over dress and puts everyone on an even playing field especially when industry professions are meeting them

TESTIMONIALS
- Wes Clark, Film Director
"Wendy, I am a former student of yours and I just wanted to say that I am still dreaming big and following a career in musical theatre. I graduated from Wagner College with a degree in theatre in '07. I just wanted to thank you for being a great inspiration to me at such a young age and to let you know what an impact you and your school made on the path of my life."
