NSPAC’s mission is to provide our students with a positive, nurturing, and professional environment to cultivate their passion for dance, acting, and voice. Our students will be challenged to learn innovative skills in an age appropriate setting. They will enjoy exploring the latest styles while being provided with solid training in the classical foundations of the performance arts.

NSPAC has some amazing teachers who believe in NSPAC’s core values. They each bring with them a passion to teach, the ability to help each student progress with their technique, the desire to explore the diversity of performing styles, and positive energy.

NSPAC is entering its 8^th season on the North Shore. Our students hail from Rowley, Ipswich, Topsfield, Boxford, Danvers, Hamilton, Wenham, Middleton, Georgetown, Newbury, and as far away as Haverhill and Wakefield. Marie and Tina, sisters and co-owners of NSPAC, are beginning their 4th year at the helm of NSPAC.

Marie McDermet is NSPAC’s Director. Marie is a former dancer with the Monmouth Ballet Theatre of the Battleground Arts Center and holds a Bachelors of Fine Arts from Ball State University. As a Director on board of the Ipswich Education Foundation she is known to focus on the experience between student and teacher. Cohesive growth through collaboration is her goal for NSPAC.

Tina Anderson is NSPAC’s Office Manager. Tina has many years experience in office management and brings a commitment to communication and making a complex business look effortless to run.
