Roles may be double cast; students who are double cast will get to perform their principal role in 2 of the 4 performances and perform in the ensemble in the other 2 performances. Those selected will begin rehearsals early with Break a Leg on selected weekends and evenings in June and July (based on student availability), where they will learn music, blocking, and scene study from the co-directors and Founders of Break a Leg, Kyle Wrentz & Healy Sammis. In addition, students will have up to 2 dance intensives on a Monday in June or July with our guest Broadway Choreographer Thayne Jasperson.
