SPMAD musical productions provide students the exciting experience of learning from a team of educators who are professional acting, vocal, and dance coaches. With our "Committed Casting" mission, all students are cast and challenged with roles and stage-time matching their skills and goals. We care about children as creative individuals. We develop them to be performers.

​We've coached students from their first time on stage to being recognized regionally with awards like Broadway Stars of the Future Nominations, and nationally with acceptance into Interlochen Center for the Arts, Broadway Arts Alliance, and Joffrey Musical Theater programs.
