How to Act a Song | BEST Musical Theatre Audition Advice

Описание: Want to know the secret to BOOKING every musical theatre audition?
This is the most important thing that I've learned as a musical theatre actor--and the thing that keeps getting people hired

Acting a song is a tricky topic and not one that's frequently discussed. In my (short) time as a professional musical theatre actress and my (even shorter) time behind the casting table in Los Angeles, I've found that time and time again the person who gets cast is the person who can tell a story while singing (or dancing).
Once you get to a professional level, everyone can sing and dance incredibly well-- it's a given and not necessarily an asset because EVERYONE can do it. The thing, however, that makes the "good" performers EXCELLENT is their ability to act while singing and dancing. Sounds confusing?

So let's break it down. Today, we're going to discuss focus points, subtext, breaking nervous habits, and MORE!
