Summary
Join actor, musician, and theatrical producer Ryan McCurdy for a two-day workshop that will focus on strengthening each performer’s voice to bring greater tonal clarity and dynamic.
The concepts and methods taught throughout this course teach actors, singers, and dancers how to engage the lyrics of both musical theater and popular rep. Through specific repeatable techniques, both physical and mental, performers of all disciplines discover the core of a song by creating specificity and truth that keep the singer in the moment.
Workshop includes one day of one-on-one training with individual performers and one day of group instruction, which can include performances from the first day’s work or in-the-moment work using traditional and popular melodies. Students are required to bring a song with sheet music they wish to work on during the workshop.
