Conservatory

6th - 12th Grade | Offered at ImaginOn | 20-weeks

The CTC Conservatory is an audition-only company of students who are held to the highest standards. Its goal is to approach a student’s training holistically while in an intense, high-demand training environment. Regular attendance and a higher outside workload is expected.
The Conservatory:
  • Fosters and emphasizes the importance of ensemble and community. 
  • Provides opportunities to connect with each other, celebrate achievements together, and showcase creative work as a group.
  • Works with more advanced texts and challenging material.
Conservatory students have ideally completed at minimum one CTC Core class to prepare them for the expectations and skills needed for the training in this program. Core classes lay the groundwork necessary for students to continue their training in the CTC Conservatory Program.

An Actor Prepares

This company is specifically designed for students at the start of their Conservatory journey to introduce them to skills explored in higher level Conservatory classes. Students will challenge their creativity as they engage in a high-energy environment that places emphasis on ensemble work, script analysis, and group scene study. Advanced vocal and physical techniques for the actor are introduced, and students will deepen their understanding of how to integrate this work into practice and performance. Conservatory actors can take this class for one or more years until they are ready to advance to either Acting Company or Musical Theatre Company at the discretion of the Teaching Artists and CTC Education Admin team.

Acting Company

Students dive into a rich tapestry of classic and modern texts, exploring character depth and advanced acting techniques. Classes are a studio environment that  focuses on integrating mind, body, and voice, empowering actors to unleash their full creative potential on stage.

Musical Theatre Company

Students learn to seamlessly integrate their talents for show-stopping performances that blend artistry and skill. Musical Theatre Company actors develop advanced vocal, acting, and dance techniques under the guidance of experienced instructors and experience the best of both worlds: personalized attention for individual growth and collaborative group work for ensemble excellence. 

Pre-Professional Company

Designed as a capstone experience for our highest-level students, this company provides intensive training to elevate skills and technique for college theatre program auditions and beyond. Students dive deep into advanced acting, vocal, and dance techniques while refining audition materials and developing a professional portfolio. Pre-Professional students will gain invaluable insights into the collegiate and professional theatre industries, and emerge prepared and ready to shine in their next chapter as a performer.
