Musical Theatre

About

From London's West End to more experimental Fringe performances, musical theatre spans the arts, inspiring and entertaining audiences around the world.

Students can gain practical experience by immersing themselves in the process of producing and performing musicals, alongside complementary historical and contextual analysis.

They are able to hone their skills during performances of well-known hit shows alongside lesser-known productions, while reflecting on the actual productions to gain a rounded contextual understanding of musical theatre.

As the course progresses, students can learn about the history of musicals and their significance in contemporary society, while undertaking more independent, industry-focused tasks, emphasising employability and preparing them to enter into a variety of associated careers.

The practical elements of the course are taught through a variety of regular workshops and vocal/dance tuition classes, with guest workshops allowing students to expand their practical professional abilities with visiting experts. The critical elements of the course are taught through a series of lectures and seminars.

One-to-one singing lessons are available at no extra cost, and students can participate in regular dance sessions, learn audition skills, and develop the techniques of acting a song. Guidance on how to form a musical theatre company, devise a show, and tour the production around the country is also available.

During the production modules the students might be called upon to work longer hours, either rehearsing or on production roles such as marketing and costume.

As with any vocational work, practice is vital and so ensuring that regularly working on vocal and dance abilities is important.
