This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to develop techniques for integrating singing with the acting and dancing skills required of musical theatre performers. Moments of dramatic intensity are often expressed in songs so an ability to move from spoken to sung voice is essential, along with the physical stamina required to sustain a role that includes dancing. At this level supervision and guidance are provided during practice sessions but individuals are expected to work independently on experimenting with ways to sustain a role and convey complexity of meaning by integrating vocal and movement skills. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Evidence of the ability to: Develop singing skills appropriate to performing in musical theatre. Do vocal warm-ups and warm-downs. Apply singing skills to convey meaning and emotion in solo, partnered and group work. Sing from a simple song lead sheet. Work collaboratively. Improve own singing techniques in response to constructive feedback. Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided for each of the above points at least once.
