What to Expect for both sessions of JBC
You register! (Don’t forget.. only 20 spots for each session!) At Auditions: you audition for the Directors. Don’t worry! You are in JBC, we just need to see you because (the best part) the audition helps us create a show all around your specific talents. You don’t need to prepare anything! Just come and we will teach you a song, you will act out scenes, and dance. More details will be given in April!
Why do we wear all black at the performances of JBC?
We perform in Actor Blacks because this neutralizes our clothing and focuses the attention on the most important part of the performance: you! We eliminate the distractions/crutches of costumes and sets and force the actor to use only the basics to perform: body, voice, and imagination!
Testimonials
From our JBC Teens
Oh my! I love JBC to death. It is so fun and intense and at the end so rewarding.
JBC is a great program that gives us kids confidence not only on stage but in real life as well.
I really enjoyed JBC. It helped my acting and singing so much. Thanks so much for this experience!
The best week of my summer!
