About Young Professionals Conservatory (YPC) @ReFlex

YPC @ReFlex is excited to announce Lightning Thief as our inaugural production! By partnering with Dingbat Theatre Project, we are thrilled to provide a space for enhanced theatre and arts training for the incredibly talented area students interested in next-level theatre education to hone their craft. Following a conservatory model, we've designed a year-round set of courses with short duration classes and performances allowing students to rotate in and out more easily so they can take advantage of all the amazing opportunities Sarasota-Manatee provides. YPC is committed to providing theatre education programming for students who wish to deepen their passion for performance, pursue a career in the arts, or have professional theatre aspirations.

YPC Productions

Full-length, audition-based productions where students will receive well-rounded training in all aspects of musical theatre performance from character and scene work, vocal training, and dance training. Students will also get the opportunity to collaborate in the production process. Intended for students age 13-20, this program will operate with rehearsal process in 6-week sessions, modeled after a traditional professional theatre experience. This means the commitment will be greater during the 6-week production process. These performances allow the students to portray roles that are age-appropriate for them, while working alongside a professionally-trained production staff. Upon casting, the conservatory will be tuition-based. Minimal conflicts permitted.

YPC Classes

Conservatory classes will run in-between production sessions and offer a variety of topics. Geared towards passionate students who plan to pursue a career in the arts or students who want to dive deeper into their love of performance. Choose one class or all five! Select sessions will culminate in a cabaret-performance for students to showcase their work. Register now for summer intensive classes to prepare for all the exciting fall programming .
