Pennsylvania Regional Ballet is pleased to offer a six-week Musical Theater Workshop designed to strengthen foundational skills in both jazz and tap dance for aspiring performers.

Under the instruction of Dena McKell, PRB faculty member and distinguished Central Pennsylvania musical theater director and choreographer, students will receive structured training in:

Tap (45 minutes): Beginner/Intermediate level technique and rhythm development

Jazz (45 minutes): Beginner/Intermediate fundamentals with an emphasis on musical theatre style

This workshop provides a valuable opportunity for young artists to refine their technical abilities, develop confidence, and prepare for upcoming auditions and stage performances.

We invite students ages 11–18 to join us for this enriching experience in the artistry and discipline of musical theater.
