About This Product

Whether you are planning a small class presentation or play for parents, or a school wide concert or musical, it is the small finishing touches and theatre knowledge that can turn an amateur show into one with a WOW factor -- one that will leave parents in awe of you; and the students feeling proud to have been a part of such a professional performance.

I have been doing school shows for my entire teaching career; have taken courses in theatre arts; and am a professional music teacher. I believe music is a performing art and should be presented to any audience like they are sitting in a Broadway theatre and deserve the very best performance. I am here to show you how to GLAM UP your class/school shows!
