That's one of the big takeaways from this Casting Panel Session that we delivered for our community of parents and rising stars.

Actors at have the opportunity to perform in front of an audience, casting directors, and talent agents - building confidence and leadership skills which will serve them throughout their entire lives.

Casting Director, Kim Heil supported us in this session which was invaluable.

πŸ’› Shewit Semere is a proud MARAYA mom! Here is what she had to say about her daughter who is featured in this backstage photo.

☺ "Maraya is a special place for my 11 year old. My daughter's first thought when she began was 'These are my people!'

My daughter has been in multiple showcases and a production! The staff is very caring and supportive.

I have noticed significant growth in my child and an increase in her confidence."

🌟 Welcome to the Maraya Performing Arts Family! 🌟

On March 2, 2020, we signed our lease for a beautiful 3,000 square foot space in Eastlake. We immediately started tenant improvements, and on March 16, 2020 we paused construction due to shelter-in-place orders.

Our staff has been working safely from home to ensure we can offer quality performing arts programming as soon possible. While we anticipated a grand opening in July 2020, it is probably unlikely that we will be able to do so. Because our clients' safety and wellbeing is our utmost priority, we have decided to have a 'soft' grand opening this summer and offer our multigenerational classes virtually.

We would love to keep in touch with you and keep you informed of our progress.
