DAN 360 Musical Theater Styles I

As a continuation of dance study, Musical Theatre Styles I concentrates on applying techniques and skills learned in previous Ballet, Jazz, and Tap courses to professional level choreography and audition situations. This course specifically focuses on the genres and styles within the career of musical theatre by studying iconic productions, learning original Broadway choreography, and exploring the trends of standout choreographers and famous dancers. In addition, mock auditions, dance etiquette, individuality in the audition room, and execution of choreography will be implemented to better prepare students for starting and maintaining their careers.
