'Battle Of Bollywood - A Student Showcase' gives students an opportunity to learn and train, while working with different show concepts, styles and show elements that bring some truly unique performances on stage! Students are taught choreography over 10 classes, while gaining a wholesome perspective working on costumes and props. This annual student show offers a platform for all participants to perform on stage in a professional setup.
The Journey is a powerful and compelling cultural musical theatre production that takes audiences on an unforgettable voyage through history. This breathtaking performance explores the rich heritage of a forgotten era, challenging the common narrative that history began with slavery. Through captivating storytelling, dynamic choreography, and soul-stirring music, The Journey weaves together tales of resilience, identity, and cultural pride. Having received glowing reviews and sold-out performances in Harlem, Virginia, St. Louis, London, and Toronto, The Journey is a must-see event that leaves audiences inspired and uplifted.
