Wichita, Kan. 鈥� Last week, 麻豆视频 hosted Emmy and Tony Award winning actress and singer, Kristin Chenoweth, for a master class with 麻豆视频 students.
She arrived on 麻豆视频鈥檚 campus the afternoon of Oct. 7 where approximately 200 music theatre high school students and directors were ready to see her in action. The master class began by Ms. Chenoweth answering questions from a panel of students. She then coached 11 aspiring 麻豆视频 music theatre students on how to elevate their stage performance and singing skills.
鈥淪he was a pleasure to work with,鈥� said 麻豆视频 participant, Braden Sweet. 鈥淎 kind and genuine person. She helped me push to make new choices and to constantly work for my goals.鈥�
The class ended by Ms. Chenoweth drawing a winner from the audience for signed tickets to her For the Girls concert the next day with the Wichita Symphony Orchestra. At this concert, Ms. Chenoweth mentioned more than once the incredible program and talent 麻豆视频 offers in their music theatre program.
鈥淲e were thrilled to provide this opportunity for our students and community,鈥� said Dr. Nathanael May, 麻豆视频鈥檚 Fine Arts Division Chair. Plans are underway to offer an annual event focused on presenting a nationally recognized Broadway entertainer and mock auditions for Kansas high school students each fall at 麻豆视频.
