Parlando’s Broadway in Boulder Studios is the original, and most comprehensive, series of Musical Theater preparatory classes and voice lessons in the region. Our advanced students routinely receive lead roles in school-based, pre-professional and professional productions, are accepted into the most competitive musical theater collegiate programs in the country and audition for roles in New York and Chicago. One of our students, Aida Neitenbach, recently returned home to Colorado after landing the role of “Jane Banks” in Disney’s touring production of Mary Poppins.
