Celebrating 23 years of Performing Arts Education

Spotlight Theatre School has been part of Newmarket’s growing arts community for 23 years. The original mandate of the dance and theatre school in 1985 was to provide hands on performance experience and appreciation for the arts.  The school continues to educate children, teens and adults in the performing arts offering classes in musical theatre, drama, scriptwriting and workshops in television and film acting. Students have the opportunity to participate in traditional, contemporary and original works. Spotlight Theatre’s focus is to teach young enthusiasts to increase their knowledge of the arts and literature while improving memorization, leadership, public speaking, presentation skills and increasing self confidence. Classes are held during the weeknights and weekends, with new preschool classes scheduled for weekdays.

The non profit division; The Voice Impact Project Theatre Troupe(V.I.P.) involves performers in community events, birthday party shows, corporate events, family show days and festivals.
