Sydney Giocobbe, student

Acting really brings out the best in me!

← Elena Eisenstadt, alumPria Lipkin, student →

Vivienne Young, student

I remember when I was walking in on the 1st day of Musical Theatre Camp and I was feeling super nervous to audition for The Lion King. And then 5 seconds later Serena (a current MacGuffin student) rushed up to me and introduced herself. It felt nice especially because I didn’t have that much experience.
