There’s something for everyone at Fineline Theatre Arts
What is acro and how is it different from gymnastics? Acrobatics is an art form. It is not a sport and is not taught with Olympic competition in mind.
In essence, creative drama is dramatic activities which have the experience of the participants as the goal.
Our ballet program uses the syllabus from the American Ballet Theatre National Training Curriculum.
Jazz dance is an exploration of style and presentation; it emphasizes balance, flexibility, coordination, strength, and creative expression.
The modern program gives students a traditional modern dance foundation that segues into contemporary modern dance forms.
Tap is excellent for the body and the mind. When a student puts on a pair of tap shoes they become a dancer AND a musical instrument!
With over 60 combined years of Broadway experiences and shows, Scott Wise and Mary Ann Lamb have a near endless repertoire of original choreography in their heads.
Ages 11 and up. Performing a song in front of a small group or a large audience may look easy but there is art and technique to it. The performance of a song within a musical or in a cabaret setting must have intention, move the audience emotionally, and be entertaining.
