High Schoolers

SING CENTER STAGE is a unique 5-day intensive for high school-aged singers offering morning and afternoon group sessions to help you make your dreams come true as a singer, performer, and all-around vocal talent. On the final night, each singer performs two solo songs in a professionally produced evening for the public at Jazz St. Louis! 2025 Faculty includes Christine Andreas (two-time Tony nominee), Anita Jackson (Broadway debut in Annie Warbucks, sung with Bette Midler and Mariah Carey) and Sing Center Stage creator and St. Louis Arts Award Winner Tim Schall, along with two professional accompanists.

Past Sing Center Stage students have performed on Broadway, toured major US concert venues as soloists, made the top 50 of American Idol, and been accepted to top university musical theater and vocal performance programs. Students are mentored daily by the renowned Broadway-level faculty, focusing on stage presence, lyric interpretation, song choice, vocal technique and personal connection to the song and the audience. This training benefits singers across all genres: musical theater, jazz, pop, singer-songwriters, show choirs and any young singers wishing to become more confident performers & people. Camp dates are June 1-5, 2025.
