All School Musical

Come to The Center and be yourself!

ALL SCHOOL MUSICAL

One of the CTA’s most beloved traditions–our All School Musical–brings students from all of our programs together in a celebratory sharing of their artistry, a fully realized production on stage! Students in 3-8th grade tackle a Broadway hit together in only a matter of a few weeks.

Current CTA students in 1st and 2nd grade are eligible to participate in our Junior Chorus. The Junior Chorus rehearses and performs in select feature moments in the show; a fabulous age-appropriate introduction to a full production!

Announcing this year’s All School musical…

Inspired by the twisted genius of Roald Dahl, the Tony Award-winning Roald Dahl’s Matilda The Musical is the captivating masterpiece from the Royal Shakespeare Company that revels in the anarchy of childhood, the power of imagination and the inspiring story of a girl who dreams of a better life. With book by Dennis Kelly and original songs by Tim Minchin, Matilda has won 47 international awards and continues to thrill sold-out audiences of all ages around the world.

Matilda is a little girl with astonishing wit, intelligence and psychokinetic powers. She’s unloved by her cruel parents but impresses her school teacher Miss Honey. During her first term at school, the two forge a bond as Miss Honey begins to recognize and appreciate Matilda’s extraordinary personality. Matilda’s school life isn’t completely smooth sailing, however – the school’s mean headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, hates children and just loves to punish those who don’t abide by her rules. But Matilda has courage and cleverness in equal amounts, and could be the school pupils’ saving grace!

Packed with high-energy dance numbers, catchy songs, Matilda is a joyous girl power romp. Children and adults alike will be thrilled and delighted by the story of the special little girl with an extraordinary imagination.

Musical Theater classes

Our Musical Theater program incorporates the three performance elements: Dance, acting and singing. All classes are team-taught and offer students an opportunity to learn while working on age appropriate songs, basic choreography, and acting. Higher-level classes within the same program, called Performance Workshops, challenge students with progressive levels of training and more complex material.

Performance classes

Our Performance classes help you develop rehearsal skills and process as you prepare for a year-end Showcase. You’ll learn discipline, personal accountability and rehearsal etiquette as you collaborate with others in a professional working environment. You’ll build confidence and skill … and have fun doing it! We are very excited to roll out our NEW 90 minute MT Performance Classes on Thursdays. For those students who just can’t get enough “CTA Stage Time” we invite you to look into Performance Workshop 1, 2, 3 or 4. Please call the CTA if you need help with class placement.

Productions

Whether it’s for family and friends or the greater community, nothing makes learning more fun than a live production in front of a live audience. We have many opportunities for you to shine.

All School Musical

Performed in the spring, the All School Musical is open to any Center student from third grade through eighth grade. No auditions are necessary and all members are guaranteed participation.
