Broadway Theatre Project knows Michael Orland and Peisha McPhee as our "Perfect Double Act"! Each year at the Project they listen to apprentices' songs and carefully and generously help each with world class coaching.

To the upcoming 2018 BTP Company, Michael and Peisha say: "It's so important now to be able to sing and act and dance and they do all that at the BTP ... It's an amazing program and we're so happy to be master teachers this year, so come join us this July!" Work with two masters who are either working on vocals at American Idol, vocal coaching a new young Disney star, or wowing audiences with their own cabaret acts, and collaborating with the best on Broadway or in the recording business. Peisha and Michael join our illustrious faculty in Tampa in July 2018 for the sole purpose of working with BTP apprentices.
