weekly 60 minute class
Ages: 6 - 10
What to Expect?
Fashioned after popular previous MCF offerings (Hats, It's a Jungle out There, & Broadway Beginnings), SCMT jr. is a great early musical theater class for a less intense, smaller group experience (approximately 15 kids). SCMT Jr is a prerequisite for children 8 & 9 years old before they can enroll in SCMT.
The SCMT jr. casts will put on a full, 20-30 minute Fall and Spring musical with simple props and set, as well as perform a couple of their numbers in our Fall SCMT Showcase. These fun musicals will be announced soon!
Designed as a semester experience, enrollment from fall to spring in SCMT Jr is ongoing; once enrolled you stay a member unless you un-enroll, which can be done in January. Spring session spots may be limited and are based on availability.
Class Times:
Monday @ 5:00-6:00pm
OR
Tuesday @ 4:00 -5:00 pm
NOTE: The materials fee is charged at the beginning of each semester. It covers music, scripts, most costume pieces, SCMT t-shirt (new to SCMT), copies of our professional show video & photos, as well as any other materials for the year. Additional siblings enrolled in the same class will get a half price discount on their materials fee.
Tuition: $75 per month + $35 materials fee
weekly 90 minute class
Ages: 8 - 11
What to Expect?
SCMT for 8-11 year olds is primarily for those who have done SCMT shows previously (most recently - Music Man Kids, Wizard of Oz, Aladdin Kids…). If your child is 8 or 9 and you are new to us, we encourage you to try out our SCMT jr. program as an intro to SCMT.
SCMT 8-11 year olds will spend the fall semester preparing numbers for the Fall 2024 SCMT Showcase, which will premier prior to Thanksgiving Break. Following break, directors will help prepare SCMT members to audition for the mainstage Spring Musical in May 2025. Auditions for the Spring show will occur in early December.
Each week, SCMT Cast Members will rotate through varied, key areas of musical theater - music, acting & dance sessions - to prepare for the showcase. While the 8-11 year old rehearsals overlap the older 12-16 year old cast, the groups are unique and will be preparing their own numbers, appropriate to their age group and level. (Casts for the Spring will be comprised of all SCMT members ages 8-16, see below for additional details)
Enrollment is ongoing for SCMT; once enrolled you stay a member from fall to spring unless you un-enroll, which can be done between semesters in January. Spring session spots for will be limited and are based on availability.

FALL 2024 REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN!
INTRODUCING OUR SCMT JR. FALL SHOW...
Pajama Party! The Musical
It's time for bed - time to pick up our toys, take a bath time, brush our teeth and put our PJs on to end the day. But wait! What's that noise I hear under my bed? Where's my teddy bear? See how bedtime can really be a blast in this creative and cozy 20-minute musical play for young artists!
SCMT Jr. will perform one musical near the end of the Fall semester and one near the end of the Spring semester. These productions are 20-30 minutes in length with roles for each child that involve some singing, dancing and acting.
The musicals chosen for this group are appropriate for their age range and development. In an environment that is engaging and fun, kids will learn about working together to put on a show through exploring the aspects of singing, acting and choreography! They will wear basic costumes and use simple props & set pieces. SCMT jr. will give children ages 6-9 a great musical theater foundation that will prepare them for the more rigorous SCMT program (kids 8-16 years old).
Enrollment is ongoing for SCMT & SCMT jr; once enrolled you stay a member from fall to spring unless you un-enroll, which can be done between semesters in January. Spring session spots for will be limited and are based on availability.
FALL SHOWCASE 2024
We are SO excited for this Fall 2024 Showcase because it will feature each of our different SCMT groups! Th SCMT Jr. cast, SCMT 8-11 year olds and the SCMT 12-16 year olds will ALL perform numbers in this fun show!

This will be a memorable show for kids of all ages & stages to celebrate & "showcase" the work they have accomplished!
Mark Your Calendars for SCMT's Fall Showcase
Thursday, November 21st @ 5:30 & 7:00 PM
After our Fall Showcase we will begin learning about auditions and preparing for for our Spring Musical.
School year Enrollment is ongoing in SCMT; once enrolled you stay a member from fall to spring unless you un-enroll, which can be done between semesters in January. Spring session spots (for those wanting only to participate in the Spring semester) will be limited and are based on availability.
While the 8-10 and 11-16 year olds will rehearse separately in the Fall semester (and perform unique numbers in the showcase), they will be placed into casts of combined ages for the Spring Musical. In other words, the SCMT Spring Musical will consist of 8-16 year old casts.
There will be two casts of the same musical - the Tuesday & the Wednesday cast. The session you sign up for right now (for fall) does not have to be the cast you are in for Spring. You will have the option (in December) to note your availability on your audition form - Tuesday only, Wednesday only, or both days. This just allows us to cast you in the group we see best fit. If you are only available one of the times, that works - we will place you in that cast.
OUR SPRING 2024 MUSICAL IS TBA.
PRIVATE OR SMALL GROUP LESSONS
Private or Group Lessons are a great way to become more confident with the skills you use in musical theatre - acting, singing, dancing... and everything in between! We would love to work with your child one-on-one or in a small group of peers to help them develop their technique for the theatre! Feel free to reach out with questions.
30 MINUTE LESSON
30 lessons + performance opportunities for 9 equal payments of $115.
45 MINUTE LESSON
30 lessons + performance opportunities for 9 equal payments of $149.
We are thrilled to open up more opportunities for Private & Small Group lessons. Please fill out the inquiry form below and someone will contact you about possible lesson times for this fall!
