PERFORMANCES
Live performance is at the heart of LJMA. We believe strongly that quality education in the classroom can only take you so far and real education comes from experience on the stage. Our students are offered more than 35 live performance opportunities per year where they learn to handle the audience, make them laugh, create a story, and build emotion all while perfecting their performance. Live shows may seem daunting for the new performer, but the more you do, the easier it becomes. This is why we offer so many performance opportunities to our students. It is incredible for character building; even the shyest of students find their voice.
Performance opportunities are offered to students based on their current ability level. The more advanced a student is, the more professional the setting is. Eventually, they are performing like a professional artist.
Black tie recitals

Teen Open-mic NIGHTs
Our Open Mic Nights are full of acoustic performances in a charming and sophisticated ambiance. Not only can LJMA students show off their skills, but they're welcome to bring their outside friends as well! We invite any and all teens to apply for a slot. Show frequency depends on the schedule of the specific semester. Check the LJMA calendar for details.
