Acting whilst singing in musical theatre can be challenging
for even the most professional and seasoned actor. How does an actor sing the
right notes, at the right time, whilst also making their performance
spontaneous, connected and believable for the audience? How do they
characterise authentically and build dynamic relationships with others, whilst
holding a note for an unnaturally long time or singing with a rigid rhythm?
In this masterclass traditional expectations of how to ‘perform’ a song or ‘act’
in a musical are reinvented. Actors work through a series of experiential
activities and practical exercises that allow them to uncover new, helpful ways
to develop character, build relationships and carry out dramatic action whilst
singing at the same time. They explore how they can act with authenticity and
believability even when having to sing, rather than speak, their lines.
The workshop is suitable for any actor who has a singing
role, even if their character has just a few solo lines or is part of the
chorus. Participants can be musical theatre specialists or novices to the
genre.
-----
Students need to prepare two contrasting (one ballad and one
up tempo) solo musical theatre songs in advance, and be prepared to sing them
at the workshop. They must bring a copy of the sheet music (score) for each
song, plus minus ones (backing tracks) to the workshop.
This workshop is open to anyone from all backgrounds.
Minimum age for admission is 16 and above.
