More Than Great Performers
Find the Right Class for Your Child
Cornerstone Youth Theatre believes that performing arts training should develop more than talent. While our Intro and Studio Classes build strong singers, dancers, and actors, we are equally interested in developing confident, responsible, respectful young people.

Students learn to work hard, take direction, encourage one another, handle both success and disappointment, contribute to a team, and pursue excellence with humility. These are skills that matter onstage—but they matter even more offstage.

Cornerstone Academy is a family-friendly community where parents can feel confident about the environment in which their children are learning. Our teachers choose age-appropriate material and approach their work with care, encouraging students to grow as artists without asking them to compromise their values or push beyond appropriate boundaries.

We want students to leave our classrooms as better performers and better people—young people who understand that their talents are not only something to develop, but something they can use to serve, encourage, and bring joy to others.

As an additional benefit - for those interested in auditioning for Cornerstone Productions - enrolling in a Studio class gives you an Audition Fee Discount.  Details on the Audition Info Page

foundational skills of  Singing, Drama, or Dance .
They are ideal for students who are new to musical theatre, want to try a new discipline, or simply aren't ready to make a full-year commitment.

10 Weeks | 20 Hours of Instruction | $300
Best for: New students, students exploring a new discipline,
and families looking for a shorter commitment.

STUDIO CLASSES
Build Skills. Grow as a Performer.
Studio Classes are for students who want to add specific skills
to their musical theatre toolkit.
These focused classes meet one hour per week from September through June,
allowing students to develop technique through consistent, ongoing training.
Rather than introducing a discipline, Studio Classes dig deeper. Students may focus on areas such as Tap, Ballet, Strength & Endurance, or other specialized performance skills that help them become stronger and more versatile performers.

September–June | 1 Hour per Week | $60/Month
Discounts are available for students taking more than one Studio Class.
Best for: Students who want ongoing training, stronger technique, or to develop a particular musical theatre skill. 

ADVANCED PERFORMANCE CLASSES & WORKSHOPS
Put Your Skills to Work.
Our Advanced Performance-based Classes and Workshops are designed for students who are ready to bring their skills together. These classes may combine acting, singing, and dance, explore more challenging material, or require previous training or production experience.
The emphasis moves beyond learning individual fundamentals to applying those skills as a well-rounded musical theatre performer.
Best for: Experienced students who are ready to be challenged, expand their range, and take the next step in their musical theatre training.
