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.

I could not be happier with my experience at Top Billing. I signed my 5 year old son up for their musical theater productions, Beauty and the Beast Jr. and Seussical Jr. Not only is he having a ton of fun, being creative, making friends, and learning about performing arts, the teachers and the owner/producer Ms. K, have a genuine and deep care for the kids and get to know them and really see them for who they are. Also, Ms. K. works very hard to keep the environment healthy and bully free for everyone involved which I really admire. They put the children’s comfort and individuality first and the beautiful productions and well attended performances are a testament the magic they are able to inspire in these young performers. My son always looks forward to rehearsal and being in the shows and always asks to be in the next one! As a parent, I have volunteered many hours to help make props, costumes, and set pieces for the productions as well as helping out backstage during the shows and it has been so rewarding and a fun way to make new friends, too. It truly is an incredibly welcoming family feeling and takes so many caring hands to create these broadway level children’s theater productions. We’ll for sure be signing up for more classes and performances and highly recommend anyone looking for a fun and kid-centered performing arts experience, look no further than Top Billing!

We have been with Top Billing for 12 years. My daughter has taken dance lessons, vocal lessons and has performed in 19 productions with Top Billing. This company is truly one of a kind! My daughter has made lifelong memories and friendships. She has grown as a person and as a performer. She is using all that she has learned to move onto the next level. She made it into a top theater school with the talents she has gained with Top Billing. We could not recommend this company more!

Top Billing is one of our favorite places. Forget the fact that my daughter gets to have fun and get moving, she is also improving her coordination/ strength/ and Flexibility, but more importantly, she also has made some great friends. TBE gives opportunities for kids to practice leadership skills in a supportive setting. They teach kids how to support and lift each other up and be a genuine friend and good person.

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!
