Acting

Acting is an integral part of Musical Theatre

A wide variety of styles are covered from classical to modern, comedy and Shakespeare.

Expressions recognises the importance of strong acting skills within a Musical Theatre course. Classes are structured to enable students to have a wide understanding of all techniques and to give confidence to handle scripts, have the ability to sight read, improvise and have confidence in auditions.

Work on the individual student’s voice is vital for their progression in the world of theatre.

As a dancer has to warm his/her body before performance, an actor/actress has to make sure the voice is ready to perform. Clarity, annunciation, diction and phrasing, along with a sound knowledge of “Received Pronunciation” (RP) is paramount to good speech.
