Who

Teens

Entering high schoolExiting high school


 

The Fort Lauderdale Teen Sessions invite high school students to work with a professional team of teaching artists to brainstorm, write, design, compose, choreograph, and produce an original musical in just three weeks. The entire story—characters, music, staging, and design—is created by the students, giving every participant a meaningful role in the production.

Ideal for teens ages 14–18, this youth theatre and musical theater program blends creative collaboration with professional training for the aspiring artist. Whether your student is an experienced performer or exploring theatre for the first time, they’ll develop skills in writing, acting, movement, music, design, and ensemble work while building confidence and artistic discipline.

Lovewell offers a supportive, inspiring, and inclusive environment where young creators are challenged, encouraged, and trusted to lead. The result is a one-of-a-kind original musical brought to life entirely by the ensemble
