We endeavor to provide educational excellence and mold a creative, collaborative, well-rounded, mentally well balanced, professional, musical theatre arts perfomer.

Students under the age of 18 must be residing with a parent, legal guardian or someone designated by parents as being suitable to accompany the apprentice at BTP when classes and rehearsals have ended.

BTP prides itself on the caliber of ability, discipline and artistry possessed by our faculty. BTP stands among the finest in bringing to its students the best training and guidance necessary in order to pursue a career in musical theatre. Our faculty is adept at teaching while continuing to perform and enhance the world of the performing arts.
Since almost all of our faculty members are familiar with auditions for both colleges and professional jobs, time will be devoted to just this. Students will be able to indicate what part of the audition is felt to be difficult and faculty members will address the concerns. We will hold mock auditions, however, so that they will have an idea as to what is ahead in their future.
