Musical Theater Camp/Workshop Details

Directors: Christine Kellogg, Bruce Miller

Unique in its approach, the Musical Theatre camp offered by the Department is complementary to the Acting for the Contemporary Stage program. Daily workshops focus on becoming a singing actor who possesses a solid singing and acting technique for work, not only on the musical stage, but also in non-musical theatre. Rounding out the intensive week is the sequence in dance and movement that embraces all forms of movement and dance techniques necessary for a successful career in theatre. The camp will end with an informal showing of the students' work.
