In a stage area at the back of the market, a hot young band called Random Weirdos blasted through nineties classics by Nirvana and Green Day. But until I set eyes upon them, I had no idea how young: the band members ranged in age from nine to twelve years old. – Didi Stewart, Berklee College of Music
Kailua Music School’s Stagecraft program puts students in real bands playing real shows, with all of the technical and academic support needed to create an ongoing, preforming musical group. The Stagecraft program springs from the creation of the highly successful Random Weirdos, (pictured below).

Stagecraft consists of two major parts: The 13 Weeks to Showtime program – where a band is formed and students learn all the basics including stage etiquette, stage setup, PA system management, critical practicing techniques, incorporating technology in musical refinement, and many other skills.
The Stage Master program – where graduates from the 13 Weeks to Showtime program receive the support they need to continue as a viable entity in their own right.
