School Of Music

Top Billing Ent. was my second home during grade school. It provided me a safe space to explore my art, and hone my love for singing, acting and writing my own songs. Ms. K has been there for me since I was 5 years old and continues to support me in everything I do. I am the person and artist that I am today because of the many supportive and inspiring art educators who uplifted me at a young age – that’s Ms. K and the teachers at TBE. Thank you for teaching me and most of all, believing in me.

When my daughter Sam turned 5, I knew the pretend plays of being a singer or an actor at preschool and at home were getting to another level of love for the performing arts. She’s shown passion and ambition even at a young age and I felt the need to nurture that. I looked for a performing arts after-school program in Glendora and couldn’t find one that suited our needs (various performing arts disciplines, weekday and weekend schedules, not far from home, great teachers, friendly and safe atmosphere) until Ms. K hosted a Glendora’s Got Talent and announced that she was opening a school in our city! Ms. K became Sam’s first official voice teacher. She not only taught her how to hone her skills, she also helped her develop self confidence and love of performing. Top Billing Ent. created a place where one can explore different forms of performing arts- dancing, acting, playing an instrument, singing, performing with an ensemble, etc. There were no limits. Not only is TBE a creative haven, it was a safe space to be your authentic self with people who are inclusive and respectful. My daughter made lasting friendships in the 9 years of being under Ms.K and being part of the early summer productions and holiday shows. It nurtured my daughter’s love for the art, and inspired her as she went on to attend the California School Of The Arts in middle school and high school and now scheduled to attend NYU Tisch School Of The Arts after graduation. Sam is also fortunate to be one of the cast of the hit Netflix show “That 90’s Show”….And all of this started with a 5 year old dressed in a Dorothy costume, looking starry eyed at Ms.K. She has been a chasing dreams ever since.

Top Billing Entertainment Performance Academy has been our second family for over a decade, nurturing our children’s talents in acting, dance, and singing while fostering lasting friendships. Their commitment to excellence in productions and the supportive community they’ve created make it the perfect place for young performers to grow and thrive..

We’ve been involved with TBE since my daughter was 5. As an only child, she’s found a family of sisters and brothers at TBE along with lots extended family and awesome role models in the teachers and other parents. TBE has become a part of our family. We love all the options available, she loves Dance Team, Musical Theater Class and performances, Private Lessons, and the majority of the other classes. She’d take everything… if only there were enough hours in the day!

As a parent and career educator, it has always been important to me to find spaces where my children can explore their giftings and develop into well-rounded individuals who are confident in what they have to offer the world. We found that place in Top Billing. Ms. K and her staff work tirelessly to foster a creative space where students are safe to show up as their authentic selves and be welcomed unconditionally.

Over the last 4 years, my children have participated in group classes, musicals, a full length film, summer camps, and the dance team. I love that when they are at Top Billing, they are being invested in by caring adults and are growing in the crafts that bring them joy. I also love that my younger children have the benefit of watching and building relationships with the older students who are so much farther along in their creative journeys. It is so refreshing to see students from all walks of life creating and investing in a community. We have found a home at Top Billing and we couldn’t be more grateful to be a part of it.

My son has been taking voice lessons and performing in the musical theater shows at Top Billing for 5 years now. The teachers and staff are so supportive and talented. We are proud to be part of the Top Billing family.
