This is more than a class – it is an invitation into the full, exhilarating experience of live theatre. Whether this is your first production or you have years of experience, this program will challenge and inspire you, meeting you where you are and helping you grow.
We believe our gifts and time are a stewardship, and that the process of rehearsals to stage is one of the most powerful places we have to glorify God. That ‘why‘ is at the heart of everything we do.
We are pleased to announce that Disney’s Aladdin Jr. has been chosen as Eden’s 2026–2027 Mid-High production. The year will culminate in a fully staged professional production performed in a theater.
Admission:
New students begin by auditioning on Saturday, August 29, 2026. This audition is for entry into Eden’s Mid-High Production. If accepted, students complete registration; all participants then take part in the September 11 dance audition, with selected students invited to callbacks on September 12. Late auditions will be accepted by video – please email Eden for submission details.
Time Commitment:
Consistent attendance is essential. As the production approaches, students should expect 3–6 additional and extended rehearsals outside regular class hours, held on Fridays or Saturdays. A schedule will be shared as early as possible so families can plan ahead.
Family Commitment:
Parent participation is essential to every production – your involvement is what makes the show possible. We ask each family to contribute approximately 20–40 hours across the year, including show week. Roles include photography, marketing, set construction, costumes, props, ticketing, ushering, and more. Parents are placed according to their strengths, and our directors provide support throughout. For many families, it becomes one of the highlights of their year. For more details, refer to the FAQs.
Required Materials:
Students are responsible for providing some base costume items and appropriate footwear.
Performance dates: TBA
While we are aiming for a May production, the final dates are pending theater confirmation. Students must remain available for the week before the show for technical rehearsals (tech week).
Important session notes:
Each class has a minimum number of students required to proceed.
If the minimum registration is not met, the class may be adjusted.

Get ready to sing, dance, and act your heart out — this is where the magic begins!
This joyful, hands-on class is a wonderful introduction to musical theatre and acting. Students will participate in both a mini-musical and a play, experiencing the thrill of bringing stories to life through song, dance, and acting. But this class is about far more than performing – it is about growing in confidence, creativity, and community in a safe, Christ-centered environment where children are free to try new things, discover their gifts, and have an absolute blast doing it.
Admission:
No audition or prior experience is required.
Time Commitment:
While the majority of rehearsals take place during regular class hours, students should be prepared for 2-4 additional rehearsals outside class time.
Family Commitment:
Parent participation is what makes our productions truly special. Families play a vital role in sets, props, costumes, and other behind-the-scenes elements, and are placed in roles that suit their strengths and availability. We ask each family to contribute approximately 10-20 hours across the year, including show week. Many families tell us that being involved in the production was one of the highlights of their year – a genuine experience of community and shared joy. We believe it will be for you too. Please see FAQs for more details.
