Encore Theatrical Arts Project (ETAP) is a renowned performing arts company. Founded in 1996 by award-winning performer, director and choreographer, Raynor van der Merwe; ETAP was created to provide advanced musical theatre dance students with the training, education, and performance opportunities to prepare them for successful professional careers in musical theatre. The performers coming to you, who range from age 13 to 18, have consistently surprised audiences with the high level of professionalism they bring to the stage. ETAP alumni have been seen performing on Broadway, at Radio City Music Hall as Rockettes, in National Touring Companies, as well as at Regional Theatres and on well-known Cruise Ships.
Our newest production, “Stepping Out” is a high-energy Broadway-style dance revue that brings the magic of musical theatre to the stage with dazzling choreography, stunning costumes, and an unforgettable soundtrack. This electrifying production celebrates the timeless allure of Jazz and Tap dance, featuring a dynamic cast that delivers show-stopping performances from start to finish. Audiences will be transported through a spectacular journey of rhythm and movement, set to a mix of classic and contemporary musical favourites.
The Montfort College of Performing Arts has been offering the best in performing arts education for over 60 years.
At the Montfort College we are proud to continue a teaching tradition introduced by our founder Eileen Nolan, which has been instrumental in the personal development of so many talented young people. Every student is an important member of our extended family; a family that as well as offering exceptional teaching in all aspects of the performing arts, also provides support, friendship and the life skills that build confidence and help students grow into well-rounded, self-assured individuals.
No matter how large or small the goal, we encourage our students to believe in themselves and develop the confidence to pursue their ambitions. Taught in an understanding, fun and creative environment, the disciplines of acting, singing, musical theatre and dance bring young people together in an exciting and happy environment to explore the magical world of performance.
