Realizing Dreams

Bravo Academy is truly an amazing performing arts school. The education that I have received there, both through private lessons and the musical theatre troupe program, is so valuable to me. All of the kind teachers and students help to create a very positive and supportive community and I always look forward to coming here!

We can't say enough great things about Bravo Academy. Our son has been doing music theatre troupes and private vocal training at Bravo for the past 5 years and the quality of education has been second to none. And now that Bravo has moved to its new location the facilities are better than ever. Do not hesitate to check out this school if your child is interested in music training or musical theatre.The best experience for our son ever!

Our daughter started with summer camps at Bravo Academy and then moved on to voice lessons and now does music theatre here as well. The staff and programs at Bravo Academy have cultivated my our daughters enjoyment of and talent for the performing arts! Although the staff are professional they find ways to keep all their students entertained and engaged. Although unfortunately they were not able to complete planned final music theatre presentation this year due to the pandemic they were quickly able to pivot to a modified online format. The current on-line format for music theatre has not compromised the quality and the enjoyment of these programs.

Better than any performing arts school in Toronto! My daughter trained at Bravo Academy for 5 years, moving up the various levels of music theatre troupes and taking private vocal lessons. The end result was that she got accepted into every vocal performance university program that she applied to (including U of T, McGill and UBC) and had several scholarship offers. The performing arts training available at a Bravo is second to none, but moreover my daughter had the time of her life! Bravo fosters the development of a very collegial and supportive network of training artists. My daughter has made friends for life who I know will support her through her journey towards becoming a professional performing artist!

I have been a student at Bravo since 2013. I love the teachers, student, productions, and the environment. It's like a second home to me. Recently, we've had to move Troupe online. I was in Teen Troupes production of The Mystery of Edwin Drood. What I loved most was being with everyone, even during these difficult times. I also loved the outcome of our final production, it was so fun to help create, and it came out really well! I have also been taking online lessons, which I love, because it is easier as I am in the comfort of my own home! I would definitely recommend Bravo, online or in person, to anyone! It is such a great environment for me and I have learned so much.

What Melissa has built here, Bravo Academy, is truly the best children (and adolescent) musical theatre school and program I could ever imagine. What she has also created here, besides magic and self esteem and community and love of theatre and dreams is a family where kids find other people like them and can grow and take risks, make mistakes, learn, develop all within the safest, most supportive, loving and stimulating environment. I love what Bravo does, the risks taken, the choices of daunting and unique (and Canadian!!) shows exposing the kids to new and creative work. Melissa and her amazing team model risk-taking and boundary-pushing. It is amazing that they are always adding new and exciting programs.

This is one of the top performing arts organizations in Toronto without a doubt. Instructors and staff are extremely professional, inclusive, encouraging, talented, experienced, creative and qualified. My child learned so much, enjoyed herself, made friends and improved her singing, dancing and acting with the Youth Troupe.

I would like to say that I loved being a part of the bravo cast. It's amazing that I had the opportunity to be apart of The In Between production. I enjoyed learning new techniques and making friends. Even though I'm sad that Bravo is over, I was honoured to be in the youth troupe for such a long time. I hope you guys will continue to spread joy.
