Metropolitan Performing Arts Classes & Camps

Metropolitan Performing Arts Classes & Camps offers Broadway Minis, Music Fun with Movies, K-POP dance and vocal workshops, and private lessons in acting, voice, piano, dance, and guitar. Broadway Minis is described as an 8 week class, and each Broadway Minis class ends in a short play for parents and family to attend. Each Broadway Minis session is limited to up to 10 students.

• Ages: 3–10 years old
• Schedule: Broadway Minis meets in 8-week sessions on Saturdays from 9:30 am to 11:00 am during fall, winter, and spring, and Music Fun with Movies meets on Tuesdays at 6:00 pm
• Price: Discounts available for a full year sign up.

Metropolitan Performing Arts offers expert training for children and adults in acting, dancing, singing, and theatre tech, and presents professional theatre productions featuring talent of the Vancouver Metro area. The Broadway Minis program is split into three terms (fall, winter, and spring), and each term culminates in a performance experience for family at the end of the session. The organization’s mission is described as “A home where everyone is seen, heard and valued through theatre and live arts.” The program is supported in part by a grant from the Washington State Arts Commission. The Executive Director is Kris Heller. Volunteer opportunities range from popcorn poppers to costume designers, and paid opportunities such as teaching and stage management are available. One parent review notes that a production of Heathers the Musical featured outstanding vocals, fantastic choreography, and a lead performance by local high school senior Kennidy, and describes Metropolitan Performing Arts as “a hidden gem” they would like to visit again.
