Take the summer to sharpen your performance skills and prepare for the season ahead! Backlight will now be offering weekly classes during the summer for students to improve their skills in acting, music and dance. Each week will feature a mixture of lessons, exercises, and games that help students grow in their confidence and abilities in these areas. Come prepared for anything each week as we explore a variety of fun topics and themes!

These classes will NOT lead up to a final performance, making them a great summer option to stay engaged, without the pressure of preparing for another show or worrying about missing a class due to vacation plans. This class is also a great option for potential students to get a taste of the Backlight experience before registering for the next season.

You can register here. These summer classes begin June 10 and cost $120/month. Call 615-567-3977 for more information.

NOTE: Backlight’s Improv Comedy Club was such a HUGE success last season that they have decided to make it a regular summer experience for their students! In Backlight’s Improv Comedy class, students will engage in exercises and games that sharpen their creative thinking skills, give them confidence in their ideas, and support one another as a team, all while enjoying two hours of laughter together!

This experience will work toward a Comedy Club performance on September 20 when students will perform alongside local Improv Comedians in a “Whose Line is it Anyways?”-style production that has quickly become a new audience favorite. No memorization or summer homework required – just a summer of laughter and confidence building in what is sure to be another great experience for all!

The Improv Comedy classes will meet on Mondays 1:30 pm - 3:30 pm. These classes also cost $120/month and you can register here. Call 615=567=397 for more information.
