Musical
Theatre: The Triple Threat Challenge
Session 3, ages 13-18, Instructor: Jeanette Hedley
Musical Theatre requires mastery of not one, not two, but three sets of performance skills: acting, singing and dancing. This session, we will work on our technique for all three. Through daily warm-ups, exercises and games, we値l examine ways to care for a performer's most important tools - their body and their voice. Workshops in voice, acting and dance will lead to an exploration of challenging pieces from the Broadway repertoire. Create strong and fascinating characters. Explore challenging ensemble vocals. Tackle some exciting choreography. Finally, work on songs that require you to do it all at the same time! Together, as TEAM Musical Theatre, we値l meld our work into a final, show stopping performance. Be ready to take risks, work hard and have a whole lot of fun as we chase the goal of becoming a triple threat performer!

"I just wanted to say a big thank you, and WOW, AWESOME! on the
performances at the end of session 4. As parents, we saw
incredible growth in our daughter's confidence and ability, as
well as her willingness to speak out, show leadership and take
on a significant role. What a fabulous opportunity - I want you
to know she had a blast."
