Speech & Diction for the Theatre!

Students will learn how to use the tarantella poem as a basis to warm up their voices.  This is a poem that can be used anytime to warm up the mouth and the voice.

Students will learn all the parts of the poem as well as vocal variations within the poem to warm up all aspects of their voice

Students will take a speed challenge and see how quickly they can read the poem and/or parts of the poem with clear diction. 

This is fun poem to use as warm up and they can use it over and over again!  

If a student has an issue with a sound or sounds, we can work on trying to clear those up as well

We will use Standard American Accents.  The Standard American Accent is a basis from which to overlay any accent you choose.
