The acting for musical theater teaches the participants about creative drama, music, voice and dance exercises that helps them to perform in a musical production.

Some will join other theater companies or the entertainment industry. Others will definitely not forget their love-at-first-bite with theater, and this begins their love affair with the dramatic arts that they would carry all their lives," says Espejo.
