Welcome to Performing Arts!
Eddie Duran
Kinsella is not just a school- it’s a feeling! When walking through our school or attending one of our many performances, it is clear that the “feeling” is special. On this page you will find what is at the heart of Kinsella Magnet School- the performing arts.

Comprehensive training, cultural exposure and arts integration are the three strategic prongs of our approach. The performing arts act as the vehicle in making academic content relevant and pertinent in the lives of our students.

Clink on the BIG RED BUTTON (coming soon...) to the right to see the performing arts by each discipline: Dance, Vocal, Drama, Band, Stage Craft, Violin, Library/Media and our performance calendar. New production photos are on the Picture Page, check them out! Videos of our productions are on the Special Events link on the Home page.
