TAKE IT FROM THE TOP was developed by Tony Award® nominee and Legally Blonde
star Laura Bell Bundy and Paul Canaan, currently starring on Broadway in 2014’s most Tony®
nominated show, Kinky Boots. Canaan says, “We started TAKE IT FROM THE TOP as a catalyst for creativity in life. We bring a team of world - class artists at the top of the performing arts field to Michigan and immerse students in a full week of training in music, drama and dance – and advance their skills, no matter how accomplished, or inexperienced, they are. This is a truly unique educational experience, and culminates in a FREE performance at the end of the week
! Each student will be given the opportunity to video an audition for a top New York casting agent who will offer feedback. It’s an incredible opportunity!”
Porter says "I remember when I was a kid growing up, trying to figure out how to live as a creative person. I had lots of influences and teachers and people who helped me. Without those people I wouldn't be where I am today. I’m so grateful when I get the opportunity to give back and share what I know with aspiring young artists.”
