Musicals must be collaborative- the range of skills- costume making/ design; choreography; ensemble work; lead actors; voice coaching. We had 3 teachers, a student support & 2 itinerant music teachers working with 36 students on this Art kete musical. We have built up capacity and confidence in our ability to put on a musical and I hope 2018 will see a full show. I think it is important, through the blogging, to highlight for students what they are LEARNING in a musical.
Leaning about Musicals in 2018. Building my background knowledge
Friday 26 I went to an entertaining talk run by cimtss recommended my talented music colleague. https://www.facebook.com/chchintlmusicaltheatresummerschool/
I certainly learned more about Broadway and how to build a musical career [hard work, seize the opportunities but more profoundly about how performers support each other, cope with the stresses and believe in themselves as people. For example the importance of physical fitness, "getting out your head". They mentioned Thoroughly Modern Millie [an old musical which I didn't realise had a recent Broadway outing]Speakers - Jonathon Groff , Andrea Burns, Julia Murney
