FINE ARTS
Summer Theatre Program Summer Theatre is back at St. Michael’s! SMCA Fine Arts is excited to announce that their summer theatre program, Archangel Theatre, will be coming back this July with another Broadway Musical production. The program features top name local musical theatre performers who will be working alongside SMCA students and alumni. This program is intended to provide a preprofessional learning opportunity for interested musical theatre students while producing quality family entertainment that engages our community. The student program is open to all interested eighth-twelfth grade local students, but since there is limited space, SMCA students are given priority. Students can apply for the program as a performer on stage or as a member of the technical crew. For general program questions, audition and tuition information, please contact Mr. Ivan Klousia, SMCA Director of Fine Arts. Payment is due when students are accepted (after they audition). Checks are payable to SMCA.
