    School For Creative and Performing Arts - Getting ready for the show in Corbett Theater

    Don't send your child to this school. They overwhelm the students with work and do not care about…read moretheir progress. What a disappointment! It's not anything like it used to be. Please read the reviews before considering this school. My family has suffered as a result of their negligence.

    The School for the Creative and Performing Arts (SCPA) is home to 1400 students and is the only…read morepublic K-12 art school in the United States. Grades K-3 are admitted by application and grades 4 and up must also audition for admission. Pupils outside of the Cincinnati Public Schools system can attend for a tuition fee; those inside county can attend for free. The school has three large performance venues: - The Corbett Theater (seats 750) - The Mayerson Theater (seats 300) - The Black Box Theater (seats 130) The Corbett Theater stage has high ceilings which allow for "flying" actors, as well as an orchestra pit that sinks down to another level of the building! In addition to the stage, SCPA has courses in their scenery and prop room. Students create and build about 95% of the stage. The convenient location of the stage shop allows them to move scenery on and off the stage with ease. The art and dance rooms have a wall of windows which overlook 12th Street, Music Hall and Washington Park. Equipped with six dance studios, students can rehearse in this studio knowing their show can be replicated, step for step, in the Corbett Theater, as the two venues are identical in size. Many of the studios are heavily insulated so that loud classes will not disturb another. The school building has a very modern design with industrial elements and bright colors. Massive pieces of student artwork hang in the hallways. My favorite detail about the school is their students: they appeared happy and focused. In contrast to other public schools, all of the SCPA pupils were dressed nicely for class with combed hair; no one was wearing pajamas.

    Walnut Hills High School - Rookwood drinking fountain outside the theatre - circa 1928

    From the 2018 vault of unpublished reviews: This is a review specifically for the event space at…read morethe Auditorium. I went to see the Cincinnati Men's Chorus 2018 holiday show (courtesy of Yelp - thank you!). The space was absolutely fantastic. I love the regal feel of the old theater architecture: it's a hybrid of Neo-Classical meets Art Deco: simply stunning! There are so many cool architectural features including a Greek/Roman nautical theme, and beautiful Rookwood drinking fountains. Who could help being inspired when studying/learning/performing in such a grand space? It's so great to see the obvious pride and alumni involvement that Walnut Hills has reflected in the preservation of their beautiful campus.

My understanding is that it offers more AP classes than any other school in the country. I was in the class of 2004. I had an amazing experience at the "'Nut". I made friends there that I shall keep for years to come. This education changed my life for the better. The teachers are all inspiring and amazing. I spent a lot of my time in the theater and music department with Mr. Peters, Mrs. Peters, and Mr. Ben Basone. These teachers inspired me to devote my life to the arts. I have emerged as a well rounded and driven adult who has become an actor, singer, stage manager, and now an arts marketer devoted to spreading the arts throughout. The school is incredibly diverse and offers a lot of resources for any type of student. I would recommend this school to any parent who wants their kids to get a great education. However, there is a test to gain entry. Now don't freak out... is passable unless you are a complete idiot. One of the questions is, "How many sides does a triangle have."
