$515

This class combines acting and singing technique, working to help students develop a process for fusing both skills together in strong musical theatre performances. Students learn basic acting fundamentals such as character motivation, given circumstances, and how to draw upon lyrics to build their understanding of the story in support of specific and truthful actions on stage. Students also learn vocal technique through group warm ups and skill building to help students develop healthy singing habits and learn proper breath support. Students work as an ensemble to stage two to four songs from popular Broadway musicals to be presented during an end-of-semester final sharing. Classroom sharings are a chance to showcase the foundational skills that students work to refine during their 14-week semester. Sharings provide an insightful and detailed look at the process of exploring and polishing performance techniques, and are a truly wonderful opportunity to catch a glimpse of the classroom experience at IStage.
