MASTERING MUSICAL THEATRE HAS MORE THAN 4 HOURS OF ONLINE STREAMING CONENT!
We designed this entire course for singers and teachers who want to find out the HOW and the WHY of musical theatre sounds and performance styles. More and more students want to sing in musicals, and contemporary musical theatre has many music influences. As a responsible teacher, you need to know how to guide them safely through the many different vocal styles and setups. Both of us are experienced in classical vocal training - we know which techniques transfer well and which don't.
We were invited to co-author the chapter on pedagogy in different sung genres for the Oxford Handbook of Singing - that makes us the expert's experts. We'll show you how to use your knowledge of music and structure to analyse and teach musical theatre songs authentically.

Such an amazing 4 hours. Because I downloaded it I could stop and start as required, where I wanted and this is a nice change to visiting a live course. Download is almost as valuable as live, it's a different experience. The download worked perfectly and the quality was good. Adjusting volume levels as needed. The course content was extremely helpful. Unpacking taboos and reinforcing elements too. Several WOW moments. Very helpful to have performers worked upon of differing genders and ages. and gave me ideas bigger than just my normal teaching practice. The course overall gave me much more confidence to teach modern Theatre styles without making me feel threatened or negative about what I may have taught in the past. Huge thank you Oren, Gillyanne and Jeremy!

I teach contemporary singing styles, why would I watch this video training?
Although musicals today are influenced by contemporary song styles, putting them in the context of a theatre piece changes the way you sing them. Gillyanne and Jeremy take you through exercises to discover how text works in a theatre setting, and how to morph the songs you already know into a character piece.
