SPOTLIGHT'S 2025/2026 NOW ACCEPTING APPLICANTS

ABOUT SPOTLIGHT'S MISSION:

​Spotlight Musical Theatre Academy was established in 2009, on the principle that theatre possesses a distinct ability to reflect the human experience. ​Our school was designed to ignite the love and magic of theatre in young actors, empowering them with the essential skills they need to shine both on and off the stage!

​

Our mission is to have fun, unleash creativity, and encourage the wild imaginations of youth. We’re all about building a strong work ethic while empowering our students to dazzle in any setting. With our unique programs, we focus on nurturing children rather than just teaching material, and the results are truly amazing!​

​

At Spotlight, we provide skill-focused Musical Theatre training for youth aged 4 to 18, featuring Saturday classes during the school year, summer camps, workshops, and an award-winning Travel Troupe that competes nationwide.

​

Our programs help students dive into a world of exploration, engagement, and skill enhancement while building their confidence. Our thoughtfully designed, skill-based curriculum creates an exciting and supportive atmosphere both on stage and off, empowering each student to embrace their potential to shine!
