Course Description & Information

Bay Area Musical Theater Workshop

The Musical Theater Workshop aims to build confidence and skill in musical theater vocal performance technique at any level through specialized synthesis instruction. With three professionals, each with a specialty in musical theater technique, individual skills will be addressed in addition to the crucial (and often missing piece!) of combining these skills into a seamless performance through practical rehearsal.

Each week every student will receive individual coaching time focusing on the integration of their skills as a performer in a safe and encouraging environment.

New repertoire will be personally assigned to each participant after the first class session to expand each student's musical theater vocabulary.
