August 2008:
The Artist's Crossing is introducing a new and potentially ongoing
series of Master Classes. These classes will feature Broadway professionals from all
mediums (performers, designers, directors, choreographers, agents, casting directors,
composers, etc.). The classes will typically be 3 hour sessions and open to a limited
number of participants, depending on the class structure. Individuals have the option to
participate in as many or as few sessions as you choose. Based on the success of these
first 3 August classes, we will continue to add more throughout the fall. Also, as always,
we are open to suggestions for upcoming classes and programs.
Following are the details for our upcoming summer classes:
