The Lied Center is excited to provide young talented performers with its third annual Summer Broadway Intensive.
- This Intensive is for high school students, from freshman to recent high school graduates.
- This Intensive is geared towards intermediate-advanced students interested in a professional career in musical theatre. Learn from professional artists in a high-paced environment!
- Four Broadway and professional theatre artists will lead classes to strengthen skills in voice, dance and acting with the goal of developing specialized skills and tools for a career in the performing arts.
The Lied Center Triple Threat Broadway Intensive is thrilled to bring back Tony Award winning Broadway Music Director, Jason Michael Webb for a third year. Mr. Webb will work with each student personally, sharing his expertise of what it takes to have a successful career in the musical theatre industry.
Tuition for the 5-day intensive is $250 per participant. Need-based Scholarships for the tuition are available!
We will also be offering housing on campus with UNL housing for an additional cost of $200.
HOW THE INTENSIVE WILL BE STRUCTURED
We will cap enrollment at 50 students. We will be dividing students up into 4 different groups of 13 students max. These groups will be divided based on dance ability and experience.
Classes will take place from 8:30am-6:00pm daily at the Lied Center for Performing Arts with plenty of breaks and socially distanced social time built in.
Most of the sessions will be small groups. Each student in the group will receive primarily one on one instruction with the instructor.
- For voice, we are asking that each student come prepared with 2 contrasting musical theatre songs. Each student will get one on one time in vocal master classes with Jason Michael Webb and vocal instruction with Alicia Olatuja.
- For acting, Student will be working with Lelund Durond Thompson with a focus on acting for film!
- For dance, we are looking to have each of the 4 groups learn different musical theatre choreography based on dance experience and ability with Katie Pohlman.

*All students will be divided into 4 small groups. Each small group will take turns working with each of the 4 instructors throughout the day.
All attendees and activity workers must comply with UNL’s Face Covering Policy. Individuals who are not FULLY VACCINATED are expected to wear a facial covering (aka, mask) and practice social distancing at all times when indoors on university property. Masks may be removed at mealtimes and participants will be expected to practice social distancing. Face coverings must extend from the bridge of the nose to below the chin and fit snugly to the face without gaps. Reusable face coverings are acceptable, as are disposable paper masks. Per CDC guidance, face shields are not acceptable alternatives to close face coverings unless they include a bottom or drape that provides fully enclosed coverage for the face and neck. Regardless of the type used, face coverings should not be designed with exhalation valves.
At the Lied Center, we mirror this University policy. Masks are now optional for anyone (staff, volunteers, patrons, artists) who is fully vaccinated, and expected for those who are not. We welcome anyone else who still prefers to wear a mask to do so - we want everyone to feel safe, comfortable, and welcome at the Lied Center.
UNL is strongly encouraging all youth 12 and older participating in summer camps to get vaccinated prior to the camp.
14 days BEFORE the camp, please conduct the following SELF SCREENING tasks (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1X3lL0G1Fo-VU7goibStmZJILCDyZFXwt4BVUvR-hA4M/edit?usp=sharing
- If the answer to any of these questions is ‘yes’, the person must not participate in the event.
- Any camp attendee or activity worker, regardless of vaccination status, should not attend camp if they are feeling ill.
