MUSICAL THEATER

Musical theater dances use jazz and ballet based technique and movement to interpret music from Broadway and TV Musicals. Musical theater dance is a larger than life style! In this class, we focus on a sense of story, emotional connection, expansive visual movement and performance. In order to understand the storyline, music and how dance brings it all together, dancers will be working on an established musical for 2 weeks or more of class.
