Excelsior Academy – truly striving to take the student Ever Upward!
The academy holds classes in theater, voice and stage movement for young people ages 8 to 22. We also have private voice and theater lessons for young people over the age of 13. We have a spring and fall semester with classes ranging in cost.
The youth theater produces four shows per year – Early Spring for actors 8-12, our Summer Musical, the Fall play for ages 8-18 and our Christmas show, open to all ages. Our Youth Theater shows are aimed at young actors ages 8 – 22. There is a registration fee of $35 for each show which pays for the young actors script and show tee shirt.
Excelsior Arts Academy and Youth Theater is located inside the First Christian Church at 910 North Indiana Avenue in Auburn Indiana.
Our Mission: To foster an educational and nurturing environment where developing performers can be opened to think for themselves and to be respectful of themselves and others. Excelsior is where we train minds, bodies, voices and spirits to achieve that end while providing art and education to the greater community.
