ABOUT THE ACADEMY<br><br>The Academy for the Performing Arts is an accredited, half day program. Admission is by audition from a group of nine northeast Ohio school systems that include Aurora, Beachwood, Chagrin Falls, Mayfield, Orange, Richmond Heights, Solon, South Euclid-Lyndhurst and West Geauga. The Academy is housed within the Chagrin Falls Performing Arts Center and uses its auditorium once annually for an opening musical with unique investment of resources. The season also uses the renovated Studio Theatre and several classroom spaces, collaborating with high school faculty, students, administrators, and area professionals on a regular basis. The mission of the Academy is to provide talented high school juniors and seniors with a joyful, challenging and inspiring training experience in the performing arts; one that builds confidence, courage and mastery in creative self-expression and prepares students for advanced college and professional opportunities. 2013-2014 marks the sixth year of the program.<br>
