MUSICAL THEATER
In this class students will really learn how to use their voice! As we work on songs from traditional musicals, filmed musicals, Disney movies and more, our main focus will be on singing and character development. Students will receive foundational training in singing, acting, and dancing for musical theatre, learning important techniques such as stage presence, scene work, script analysis, improvisation, choreography, and vocal projection.
