Becoming Best Friends with your Voice!
Your voice is the only instrument that you bring everywhere and have with your for your entire life! Do you know it? Are you friends with it? Not sure how to answer these questions? This class will bring you closer to your unique instrument. During these 8 weeks you will explore warmups, learn your range, build a larynx, learn memorization techniques, and practice sight-reading, all the while learning what is best for YOUR voice. In each class you will have the opportunity to sing a snippet of something for the group, learn an audition cut of a new song, and normalize practicing in front of others.

Pay-What-You-Can Pricing
Introducing Pay What You Can options! If the tuition is not within your budget, please consider one of our Pay What You Can options. We are also offering financial assistance for even lower tuition rates (apply here) or from the individual classes above. Our ability to offer these affordable options is contingent on those with the ability to pay full tuition choosing that option. If we do not have enough full priced tuition students, this may result in cancelling the class.
Credit Transfers
If you have a tuition credit or any kind of crewpon code that you would like to transfer to another participant, please email info@afterworktheater.org with the crewpon code, the value (if known), and the name and email address of the person you would like to give your credit to. Once it has been transferred, they will be able to register into the class using their new credit.
If you do not have a specific participant who you would like to access your credit, but would like for the value to be added to our financial assistance program, please email info@afterworktheater.org. We will happily convert your credit into a general credit that will allow us to provide additional financial assistance beyond the funds we have already set aside.
