Intentional Training. Outstanding Productions. Encouraging Community.
Rise serves students ages 8+ across Collin County and Dallas County, including Plano, Richardson, Allen, and McKinney. From Summer Camp to a full-length musical, our programs promote curiosity, hone craft, and invite collaboration.
Acting Intensive with Zeke Bocklage
Join the Head of Musical Theatre at Stephen F. Austin State University for a dynamic acting intensive! During this workshop, Zeke will empower student growth in audition skills (including college prep for older students), musical theatre technique, and synthesis of storytelling in performance.
Summer Production
Ages 10–18
We’re making some magic with Rise’s inaugural production, Disney’s Dare to Dream JR. This 60-minute musical revue celebrates 100 years of Disney music, from Beauty and the Beast to The Lion King to Encanto to so much more. Dare to dream with us!
- All-ages fun: With a shorter runtime and nostalgic songs for everyone from grandparents to toddlers, this show is perfect for the whole family.

- Full-scale performances: Shows held at The Winston School Theater (Royal Lane & Dallas North Tollway)
The Rise Studio
Ages 8–18
Our semester-based programming begins in September 2026! Rise will offer weekly training in acting, voice, dance, and strength and conditioning. Our shared goals of high standards and genuine care will guide every class.
- Thoughtfully-curated curriculum: Our weekly classes create a growth arc over time.
- Joy-centered learning: Working hard and having fun go hand-in-hand.
- Confidence-building instruction: Take risks within a loving, trustworthy community.
- Standing-ovation showcase: Demonstrate your growth in an end-of-semester performance.
Every program. The same culture.
Whether a student is in a weekly class, a production rehearsal, or a summer camp, the Rise Standard defines how we work together. We work hard because we enjoy the process as much as the final product.
