Showcases

Every 12 weeks, a stage

Showcases are short, warm and family-friendly. Every performer plays a full song, gets a signed certificate in their book, and goes home with their next book in hand.

What to expect

  • About an hour, with the newest players first
  • Each student introduced by name and song
  • Professional video for every track family
  • Friends and family welcome, free

Upcoming dates

The first showcase for the Founding 25 is Saturday, April 10, 2027. Book a placement session to be first on the list.
