Musical Theatre Junior
Age 7-9
24 weeks
Saturday 10:00am-11:30am
Starting September 21st, 2024
No previous experience required
 
This class will teach acting, singing, and dance technique with an emphasis on the storytelling aspect of musical theatre. Students will work their vocal and dance technique through the lens of expressing intention and emotion, shaping not just singer-dancers but true triple-threat performers. Students will explore the musical theatre repertoire, learning about different composers and styles. The first session culminates in an open class performance featuring the creation of their own works. The second session culminates in an on-stage performance.
 
In the fall session, the students will begin the creation of a new musical piece, book, music and lyrics (no experience of this required!) with a writer/composer. The creation process will focus on imagination and collaboration. We will sometimes invite theatre artists to present MASTERCLASSES to the students (ie. clown, mime, mask). The fall session will lead to a performance/presentation of work on the final day of the session.
​
In the winter session, in addition to the continued creation of the piece, the students will prepare and rehearse the final musical product, which will be presented on the final day of this session.
