This is a one hour jazz based dance class that focuses on scenes, songs, and choreography from musicals, Disney, and Broadway shows. Musical theater students will be exposed to lip-syncing, bringing characterization to the choreography, defining a character, stage presentation and learning to master the various musical theater techniques and styles. The musical theater’s yearly routine may include props and costumes that reflect the characters portrayed in the routine.
Each week students will work on jazz technique and style using bevels, camel walks, pirouettes, extensions, jumps, etc.
One routine will be taught per year, per class. The dance year culminates with a memorable recital routine at the beautiful State Theatre in New Brunswick, NJ!
Musical Theater dance classes at Rising Stars are available for various ages. Please see our current class schedule for class availability and times.
