About the Company

The performance companies at OYSP are composed of talented singers, dancers and actors selected by auditions each May. There are two different companies: musical theater company and dance company. Our company members participate in regional -- and sometimes national -- competitions, as well as other OYSP shows and events. The OYSP companies have won numerous awards including the prestigious Broadway Cup at the 2004 Access Broadway Nationals in Orlando, and numerous Best Studio and individual and group awards at Access Broadway Regionals in Atlanta. Alumni of our program have gone on to study in some of the top musical theater and dance programs in the country.
