MYC Musical Theatre – Jan 24 Term
Work with West End Professionals, including Vivien Carter (Anything Goes, Barbican Theatre and Medea, National Theatre) and Ryan Hanlon (Musical Director); with this weekly, dynamic that class provides young people with an introduction to musical theatre for 14-17s. Alongside this, we have a series of exciting Masterclasses and Q&A’s with industry professionals.
Each term we explore songs and create ensemble numbers that explore how to integrate the singing, dance and acting techniques needed to perform on the West End stage.
Don’t worry if you’re a little shy as most of the learning is done in groups with opportunities for solos when you feel more confident about being in the spotlight.
MYC Musical Performers will receive weekly training, which will develop:
- Vocal Technique
- Dance Technique
- Text and Song Analysis
- Creating a Character
- Scene Work
- Improvisation Skills
- Acting TechniquesWeekly sessions from Sat 6 Jan, 2-4pm. (Please note: no session on 24 February)
