Musical Theater 3-4 Plus is for those who are interested in possibly pursuing the arts in college, or as a career, and have the training to back up their talent. The class is all about developing the 'triple threat' — accomplished singers, dancers, and actors who are ready to work in a professional setting.

- Professional audition techniques and building your audition songbook
- Intermediate/advanced musical theater choreography
- Headshots and resumes
- In-depth scene study and character development
- Music theory and ear training

- Specialized critiques from instructors and classmates

Students in this class are invited to participate in our Next Stop Broadway Showcase on February 27 & March 1, 2025. A Showcase Fee will be due in January 2025 for students participating in the Showcase. Participation in the Next Stop Broadway Showcase is not required for Musical Theater classes but is highly encouraged for this upper-level class.
Class Requirements
Detailed information about the requirements for each class can be found in the "About" section of the respective course.
Dress Code
All students are required to wear closed-toe shoes. Sandals, flip-flops, Crocs, and other open-toed footwear are not permitted.
Sick Policy
The health and safety of our students are a top priority. To prevent the spread of illnesses, we ask that sick students remain at home. If a student becomes ill during class, they will be isolated from the other students, and their caregiver will be contacted immediately to pick them up. Students must be symptom-free before returning. We do not administer medication.
COVID-19 Considerations: In addition to general illness prevention, we recommend the following for students experiencing COVID-19 symptoms or exposure:
- Stay home: Students who exhibit symptoms consistent with COVID-19 should isolate at home.
- COVID-19 testing: If your child has had symptoms or has been exposed to someone with COVID-19, you should consider giving them a COVID-19 test before returning to class.
- Follow local guidelines: We will adhere to local and state health department guidelines regarding COVID-19 protocols.
Late Policy
Students must be picked up promptly at the end of each session. A late fee will be charged for students not picked up after a 15-minute grace period.
Refunds
Enrollments are processed on a first-come, first-served basis in the order forms and payments are received. You will receive an immediate notification if a class you want is full and you have been placed on a waiting list. Otherwise, DCT will confirm your class placement after the registration has been processed.
Full payment is required for enrollment. Partial refunds are available with notice of withdrawal up to two weeks before class. There are no refunds after that point.
Class Cancellation Policy
DCT reserves the right to cancel any class due to unforeseen circumstances. In the event of a cancellation, students will receive a refund. In the case of inclement weather, DCT cannot guarantee that missed classes can be made up.
