Musical Theater Masterclass has three main elements: warm up, lesson and performance. Students are led through a vocal warm to make sure they are ready to sing, after that we will have a lesson on the history of the musical Into the Woods and the composer Steven Sondheim, finally, we will learn how to sing and perform two songs from the musical ("I Know Things Now" and "No One is Alone"). This Masterclass is educational but more importantly, it is fun. It is for young artists who really care about storytelling through acting and music. There is no required knowledge needed before signing up, just an readiness to be involved and a desire to learn something new. My teaching style is very much hands on and I love it when students sing and comment throughout the class (as long as it pertains to the music we are discussing). I am so excited to meet you all!
Learning Goals
Students will leave this class with an understanding of the musical "Into the Woods" the composer Steven Sondheim and the ability to sing two songs from the musical.

Parental Guidance
If you choose to watch the entire musical (something that is not necessary before class time), there are some topics and visuals that might be scary for younger students. We will not be looking at those moments in class so this is just in case you decide to watch before or after.
Supply List
A printout of lyrics will be provided before the first class if you would like to print them out.
