Music Theatre Performance 3A

DANCE: This course extends skills and techniques learnt in the first two years. The dance stream continues to incorporate techniques of various dance and physical theatre forms but with a focus on tap and jazz/contemporary dance. An advanced level of dance as a soloist and ensemble precision are a feature, as is speed and accuracy in the assimilation of choreographic routines.
INDUSTRY: Learning the art of voice-over recording, including the art of voice acting and industry expectations and requirement for a voice-over reel. This will include recording your own reel for industry presentation. You will also begin the process of creating your own professional showreel, providing you with the opportunity to showcase your talent and unique abilities as a performer. Through hands-on practice and feedback from industry professionals, you'll develop your skills in creating compelling, engaging recordings that will impress casting directors and help launch your career in the music theatre industry.
ACTING: This course is designed to deepen the practice of the individual in acting. Moving beyond the acquisition of skills towards an awareness of the whole performer, actors will focus on a series of acting and performance tasks designed to blend theory with practice, and to integrate a complex level of mind and body approaches to theatre performance, with a particular emphasis on contemporary approaches to dramaturgy. Dramaturgy is defined in this course as the art of realising the performance. Actors will focus on refining their techniques in all skills areas by interpreting or creating scenes and other works for the stage.
