2026 Community Through Song Summer Sessions
Something Rotten! Program Details:
Something Rotten Prescreen Requirement
Something Rotten! requires a video prescreen to ensure that all performers registering for our pre-professional program are confident and capable of delivering a performance through song. We are not looking for perfection—just your best and most authentic work. Prescreen requirements will be sent out April 1st.
The cost of the program is $845. If we feel a student is not a good fit for the program, a full refund of the deposit and program fee will be issued to the family.
