Bristol Riverside Theatre

musical. The 2007
Summer Workshops performed for more than 6,100 people
on two professional stages!
EACH
WORKSHOP ALSO INCLUDES classes with WORKING Theatre Arts
Professionals in acting, voice, music skills, dance
(ballet, tap, jazz, and hip hop), on-camera technique,
mime, and other performing arts.
