GET Conservatory - Youth Classes

Youth Camps and Classes

In the GET Conservatory all programs for young people have two core objectives:

Students will grow as artists while having fun.

We feel it is of the utmost importance that students enjoy themselves while learning the joy of performing and live theatre. They receive the finest instruction from working professional theatre artists, which offers students an invaluable opportunity to learn from the best while having so much fun that they’ll want to come back for more.

Students will learn to reach their best performances through strong ensemble work.

At the core of Georgia Ensemble Theatre & Conservatory is the belief that the stronger the company, the better every individual's performance becomes. Our camps and classes are structured to teach students how to make their work stronger by connecting with other members of their ensemble and helping all to improve.

Master Classes

In the GET Conservatory we offer special Master Classes for students who have already taken classes and camps here or have similar training in another program. These classes are designed for commited students and the work in class is more intense - similar to what you might receive in a college program. Often there is work students are expected to do outside of class time.

If you want to perform at a higher level, these are the classes for you.
