20 of the nation's most talented young performers are ready to sing, dance, and act their way to the ultimate grand prize-an all-expenses-paid trip to Paris for the Ultimate Paris Summer Arts Program!
Join us for an electrifying afternoon at Theatre 555 as finalists aged 12-30 compete LIVE in front of a celebrity panel of judges.
These young stars are competing for more than a title-they are chasing the opportunity of a lifetime. Winners from each age group will head to Paris this June to train with world-class industry pros including:
* David Lee Brewer (Beyoncé’s former vocal coach)
* Lou Stancil (Will Smith’s acting coach)
* Faculty from Juilliard, Broadway, and the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland
So Be "In The Room Where It Happens" to see tomorrow's stars, Today!
