Jessie Hooker (PAI alumni, 2003) was fantastic in her recent appearance in Scranton with the national tour of Legally Blonde. Following the performance, many PAI alumni had the chance to visit with her backstage. She sends her love to everyone and encourages current PAI students to chase their dreams---they really can come true!

Summer is the season when serious young students of music, dance, and theater are free to immerse themselves in the arts; to learn and to grow, to practice and rehearse, to observe and participate. At the Performing Arts Institute (PAI) of Wyoming Seminary, we have worked hard to develop the kind of summer program in which students can nurture their talents and grow as human beings. We are a family, each member supporting the other and feeling proud of the other’s accomplishments.
