Superb! Not only is it fun, but also really serious and helped me a ton. I love
the staff. Acting / Scene Study class with Elana – LOVE. Fred really helped me
with my “act the song.” </span><span style="line-height:107%;font-family:Wingdings">J</span><span style="line-height:107%;font-family:Arial,sans-serif"> Jenny is the best dance teacher I have ever had – I want her to teach
me private lessons! Jo Li is a great
voice teacher. She not only helped me on my singing but with tension. The King
and I – SUPERB, FUN!! The Musical
Theatre focus was really helpful and introduced me to things that I’ve never
heard of that improved my dancing, singing, and acting in many ways. I would recommend everyone come to HBTI. You
will have a very fun and exotic experience. I am definitely coming back next year.
HBTI IS THE BEST!<br>

Good Grief! Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and the whole Peanuts gang come to Hathaway Brown Theatre Institute. Based on the popular comic strip by Charles M. Schultz, this delightful show features classic songs such as HAPPINESS, SUPPERTIME, THE BASEBALL GAME and the title tune, as well as brand-new songs and material from the Tony Award-winning Broadway revival. Follow a day in the life of these beloved 5-6 year old characters, as Lucy pursues her infatuation with piano-playing Schroeder, Linus loves his blanket, Snoopy lives in his rich imagination, Charlie Brown seeks to find out what it means to be a “good man,” and they all try to define what "Happiness is..." It is sure to delight both children and "former children" alike!</span></p>
