MUSICAL THEATRE CLASSES

Musical Theatre is a class that brings together the disciplines of Acting, Singing and Dance.  Students will work with three different teachers each week within the class time.  The Cheeky Monkey Musical Theatre class are all together in one class but the Junior and Senior students are split into two or three age groups depending on numbers.

At TBL Academy we offer “triple threat” training to all our students.  This is to make them the most rounded performers they can be and should they choose to make performing their career, then they will have access to the most work available in the industry.

Musical Theatre is a great way to be able to improve students skills in all three disciplines in one class.  This is a great starter class for anyone who is starting out or is not sure which discipline their strength lies in.  With a taste of everything students can see what they excel in and what their favourite discipline is, they can also work out which disciplines they would like to work on more.

Cheekys – Reception, Year 1
Junior – Year 2 – 6
Senior – Year 7+

In addition to the acting we offer in MT, we also offer a separate Acting class for those students who would like to focus more on Acting specifically or who are not interested in the singing or dance offered in MT.  In this class students will work on both group scenes and monologues and duologues.  As well as stage acting, this class also works on TV and film acting, camera work and self tape preparations.  This class is a great addition for those who are wanting to take their acting training to the next level.

In addition to the singing offered in MT, we also offer a group singing class and private singing lessons.

In the singing class students will work on singing pop songs with harmonies and also a-cappella singing (without accompaniment) to develop their harmony skills.  They will learn to follow harmonies by ear and work on various styles of popular music to improve their singing across different genres.  This class is a great addition for those students who want to build their skills with singing, without having to sing on their own.

Private singing lessons allow students to gain confidence in their abilities and to develop their individual technique within singing.  Some students do these private lessons because they lack the confidence or find singing hard and want to learn how to sing properly.  Others do them for specific help with their individual needs.  It doesn’t matter whether you are confident or have a high level or singing or are just starting out.  The lessons are for everyone.

Acting Through Song is a class for students who wish to take their performing skills to the next level.  The class focuses on how to perform songs by identifying and portraying the meaning of a song.  Students use comprehension skills to understand songs and how they should be performed.  The class is done as a masterclass in front of the rest of the students as they take it in turns to perform their song and receive feedback from the teacher and the other students.  The students don’t only learn when they are performing but also when they are the audience giving feedback.  This class is a must for any students who are interested in taking their singing more seriously.
