All music theatre students must undertake the Music Theatre Production course. It is both a skills-based practical course focussed on the three areas of acting technique, voice production and dance skills, coupled with the theoretical study in each of these areas. This includes key areas of ENSEMBLE SINGING, SONG REPERTOIRE and participation in a fully staged PRODUCTION. As such, all classes are workshop style where attendance is critical for skills development.

Ensemble Singing: 1 x 1 hour workshop each week
Song Repertoire: 1 x 2 hour workshop each week
