This ongoing weekly structured Musical Theatre class is ideal for aspiring young performers. Students will learn the fundamentals of singing, acting and dancing in this weekly interactive, energetic and positive class environment. The Rising Star Musical Theatre Performance Group is geared towards beginners, but not to easy for intermediate or advanced learners and a great way to introduce your future Broadway Star to the Musical Theatre experience. Each week we will start the class off with a Broadway Jazz dance style warm-up where students learn about different styles of musical theatre dance. We then move on to the singing component, where we will work on pitch, tone and sound quality through fun and interactive vocal warm-up exercises. The second half of each class is devoted to working on a song for performance at the end of the class. Learners will apply their skills to a new song each week from a kid friendly Broadway style musical (Annie, Frozen, Hairspray, Mamma Mia, High School Musical etc.) Students will also learn about theatre terms and vocabulary, as well as the background of the shows from the selected songs that they will be working on in class. Please see the schedule schedule below for our Fall Term 2021: Week 1 -Annie-"You're Never Fully Dressed Without A Smile" Week 2 -Mamma Mia-"Dancing Queen" Week 3 -Shrek-"I'm A Believer" Week 4 -High School Musical-"We're All In This Together" Week 5 -Annie-"It's A Hard Knock Life" Week 6-Mamma Mia-"Mamma Mia" Week 7 -The Sound of Music-"Do-Re-Mi" Week 8-Frozen-"Let It Go" Week 9 -High School Musical "Wildcat Cheer" Week 10 -Hairspray-"Mama I'm A Big Girl Now" Week 11-The Sound Of Music-" The Lonely Goatherd" Week 12-The Sound Of Music-"So Long Farewell" Week 13-Frozen-"For The First Time In Forever" Week 14 -Frozen-"Do You Want To Build A Snowman" ***More songs will be added as time goes on. ***Lyrics and tracks will be provided and posted in the classroom before each class.

***A large open space is required for this class as we will doing a lot of dancing and movement. Comfortable clothing such as, athletic or dance attire works perfectly well. As for shoes, if your child is participating on a hard surface floor such as hardwood or tile, a pair of running shoes are recommended for proper support. Should your child be in carpeted room, non stick socks work. Cordless ear buds required or simply using the microphone form your child's computer work well.
