In this weekly musical theatre class, students will have a chance to build the skills they need to be a successful musical theatre performer using a musical song and dance number and song and script work. Each week we will work on vocal technique with exercises meant to warm them up and improve their power, range, support, and agility. We will then work on learning the chosen song from the musical section by section as I play the song and guide them to use vocal techniques such as mixing, belting, chest and head resonance, articulation, and more. We will discuss the musical, the characters, and do short scene and song work from the show so students can explore how to create a character and bring them to life on stage. Students will receive individual guidance on their script work or 16 bar audition cut of a song to help them improve their skills. Students will also learn the dance combination to the group song section by section each week through repetition. They will grow and sharpen the skills of singing, dancing, and acting necessary to musical theatre performance.
