Perks of attending a downtown high school #3: You can walk to field trips.
Yesterday, SPCPA students in grades 9–11 wrapped up the school year with a short walk to Park Square Theatre to see its stunning production of A Chorus Line.
A musical about the joy, passion, and fragility of life as a young artist felt like the perfect way to end the year for a community of young artists.
Many thanks to Park Square Theatre for its generosity and hospitality. It was a memorable way to close out the school year.

Fox 9 News captured SPCPA students rehearsing "Purple Rain" Tuesday afternoon at the O'Shaughnessy ahead of that evening's comencement ceremony. We're excited to share that same student band has been invited to perform the song at the Prince Celebration Block Party on Saturday, June 6, for 15,000 people!

A huge thank you to the incredible team from TU Dance for spending time with our SPCPA dancers last week for a special master class experience.
Students explored movement rooted in TU Dance’s current choreographic process, collaborated in creating and shaping phrase work, viewed excerpts of professional choreography, and engaged in conversation about the life of a working artist, training opportunities, and the mission of TU Dance as an organization.
We are deeply grateful for the continued partnership between SPCPA and TU Dance and for the ways they continue to invest in young artists in the Twin Cities community.

The last day of the school year and Landmark Center means one thing at SPCPA: Finale season is here!
Current students and families — don’t forget to log into Infinite Campus and purchase your Finale tickets.
And SPCPA alumni… remember Finale?
The one night each year when the entire school came together in one room — dressed up, dancing, taking pictures in Rice Park, and celebrating the end of the year together. In a school spread across studios, rehearsal rooms, classrooms, and performance spaces, Finale has always been the rare moment when the whole SPCPA community could simply be together.
We can’t wait to see this year’s students make their own memories – Finale is at the Landmark Center, Thursday, May 28.

Not graduating this year? It is still an option to attend the commencement ceremony! Perhaps your child is performing. Perhaps you're looking for an hour of joy. If you have never been to an SPCPA graduation, you are in for a treat. It is an elegant affair that feels much like a production, fully produced and supported by union technicians, with work representing each arts department at SPCPA – song, dance, and plenty of art and artistic expression. It's a beautiful celebration of our senior class. The guest speaker is world renowned playwright and screenwriter Jeffrey Hatcher.
Tickets are $15. The public is welcome. The ceremony happens at The O'Shaughnessy at St. Catherine University, Tuesday, May 26, 7-8pm.
