A series of interactive workshops offered through the MSU
Federal Credit Union Institute for Arts and Creativity at Wharton
Center that gives participants – both pre-teens and teens
– an opportunity to experience what it is like to be on Broadway.
The workshops are taught by Paul Canaan and a talented
team of Broadway professionals from New York City, with connections
to such shows as Legally Blonde: The Musical, Adams Family Musical,
Wicked, Next To Normal, In The Heights, Rent,and South Pacific, to name just a few.
TAKE IT FROM THE TOP was developed by (2007) Tony
Award nominee and Legally Blonde star Laura Bell Bundy and
Broadway star Paul Canaan. “I saw a need to reach out to
these aspiring performers and give them a leg up.” Canaan says,
“I’ve always been passionate about musical theatre. Teaching
is an opportunity for me to give back and have a blast doing it.”
Participants learn the craft of musical theatre with basic to
advanced skills, industry history and practical content in an
exciting, fast-moving, interactive setting. TAKE IT FROM THE
TOP offers participants a chance to experience Broadway with
the pros. Learn, work and sharpen your skills in a creative, fun
and supportive environment. If you ever wanted to be on a
Broadway stage, now is your chance to perform and pick the
brains of the people who are doing it!
