Lane Napper, along with a team of Axelrod PAC professionals, will be holding eight-hour classes and rehearsal on weekdays at the Axelrod Performing Arts Center in Deal Park, NJ - only five minutes from downtown Asbury Park! In addition to performing the musical for four performances (July 2

In addition, stage and TV professionals will be present to meet the cast and to participate in a Q&A with the students and parents.
