Our company began in 1982 as The American Dancemachine, home to the famous Professional Touring Company that reconstructed, performed, and preserved the great dance numbers from a multitude of Broadway shows. THE TRANSITION When Dancemachine founder and director Lee Theodore died in 1986, we became the American Theater Dance Workshop. Our goal is to continue sharing the educational aspect of dance. Currently, in our theater dance, musical theater, tap, acting, hip-hop and repertory classes, we teach the choreographic styles of the Broadway and contemporary stage so that they will be passed down and shared with future generations. WHERE WE ARE NOW The American Theater Dance Workshop is led by two of Long Island's most respected and experienced Broadway Professionals - Michelle and Jerome Vivona. Together they've spent the better part of their adult lives working with and learning from the greatest artists of our generation. The lessons they've learned come from years of hard work, training, and learning the work ethic needed to succeed at the highest level of American Theater by performing with many of the world's leading talents - up close and personal - sharing the stage and screen with legendary performers, directors and choreographers. Because of their deep connections with the Broadway community they are able to bring their colleagues and current Broadway VIP's to the studio to work with their students and guide them on what is happening onstage from the Golden Age of Broadway to today. There isn't another studio on Long Island that has access to the depth of knowledge and experience the Vivona's bring to Mineola on a regular basis: Broadway Master Classes that have students learning from Broadway Directors and Choreographers, Broadway Dance Captains and Broadway cast members teaching actual Broadway choreography-up close and personal and sharing their thoughts, expertise and feedback with our dancers in an intimate setting. The level of growth that's possible for an artist when receiving that kind of first hand guidance cannot be underestimated. You really cannot fully understand or appreciate the energy of the studio without visiting and meeting our staff of incredible professionals. We want to be your studio - come see why the training and friendships you make at ATDW will last a lifetime, and why our students say "Friends Gather Here"..もっと見る
