Performing Opportunities

The Academy offers a year end performance for specific classes instead of holding a recital or participating in competitions. These classes are called Workshops and are marked with a “P” sign on the schedule. In June, 2011 the end of year performance was held at the stunning Two River Theater in Red Bank!

Exam Opportunities

RAD exams provide students with a goal to perfect a syllabus and then a grade to help them gauge their progress.
