In this masterclass, performers learn to approach musical theatre repertoire as active storytelling, grounded in clear objectives, emotional stakes, and moment-to-moment shifts.

Through focused, one-on-one coaching, participants analyze lyrics as text, identify beats and tactics, clarify character objectives, and explore physical life and staging — building performances that are specific, truthful, and dramatically compelling. Students will have the chance to learn both during their coaching as well as by observing other students perform.

Ideal for musical theatre artists ready to deepen their craft and elevate their auditions through clarity, honesty, and storytelling.

Class requirements: Participants should come prepared with a song they’d like to work on.

Tuition: $80 per student.
