    If the applicant wants to prepare for auditions, competitions, entrance interviews or talent tests, we also included these in the RDS offer. Depending on the time available, you can arrange your own individual plan. 

    1. MEMBER OF THE MUSICAL ACADEMY (MA):

    A) The student regularly attends group lessons in singing, acting and dance, which means he/she gradually develops into a complex artist who is of interest to many directors or producers.

    B) If the applicant at House of Arts is part of  The Wave or Souljam dance groups or attends RDS dance courses, we take this dance component into account and these members will pay reduced tuition fees. The prerequisite is attending group singing and acting lessons as part of the Musical Academy. 

    C) The student regularly attends group acting and dance lessons and also takes part in individual singing lessons. The instructor decides whether the child attends individual singing lesson as part of the Musical Academy depending on the applicant's disposition. 

     Every year, members of the Musical Academy take part in two theatre shows led by the RDS ART Group and well-known artists and directors, as well as in competitions, concerts and external events.

    2. INDIVIDUAL SINGING / ACTING LESSONS OFFERED BY THE RDS:

    This product is part of the RDS offering and includes individual singing or acting lessons aimed at those preparing for auditions, competitions, interviews or talent tests. The lessons are aimed at students aged 16 and over. These students do not take part in our performances, concerts or events. 

     

  • 32. At what age are singing-acting-dance classes at the Musical Academy intended for children?

    The MA concept is aimed at students between the ages of 6 and 16.

    Students over 16 can opt for individual singing lessons or individual or group acting class. These students are not members of the Musical Academy and attend classes from regular RDS offer.

  • 34. How can I register for the Musical Academy course year?

  • 35. What do I get after successfully completing the MA course year?

    The student gains experience during his/her studies by taking part in our performances, where we work with well-known names such as director Ján Ďurovčík. In addition, the RDS Art Group cooperates with casting agencies or television productions, consequently opening doors to show business for our students. A graduate of the Musical Academy therefore has the experience that directors or producers often need after completing their studies. After each year, students receive a certificate of completion signed by guarantors Mirka Marčeková and Jana Hubinská.
