In this four week course, 2 times a week, students will learn all about musical theatre performance. Students will rehearse for a mini-show. They will learn singing techniques, dance and choreography, and story creation. Each day will have a specific focus, and towards the end of the course, we will bring it all together for a show for parents. This is a highly interactive class. Students should be expected to practice the songs and dances outside of class. 

At the beginning of the course, students will receive an instructional choreography video from our guest choreographer. Students will spend some time learning the choreography and their own before our dance class. During our dance class, the choreographer will teach dance technique and practice the dances with the students. 

Students will learn vocal warm-ups, and practice singing songs from their favorite Broadway musicals. Special emphasis will be given to matching the pitch of the notes. 

Finally, acting and improvisation activities will be taught. Students will create "mini-scenes" together. Students will also put together a costume and either a digital or paper backdrop for the performance. All of these performance elements will be put together for our own show using songs from the selected musical. 

I am a very friendly and encouraging teacher that has high expectations for my students. Students should enroll in this course if they have a true desire to learn about musical theatre. The only requirement is a want to learn, but this class is perfect for beginners and seasoned performers.
