Singing & Core Skills Workshop (22nd May 2012)

Tue, 22 May 2012 23:21:09 +0100

On Tuesday StageOne had a very productive singing workshop and everything that StageOne had learnt about singing, for example standing up straight, deep breaths, and projection was put into practice.

Sue led another memorable Core Skills and Sketch Acting workshop by introducing us to a sketch about being prepared and unprepared. In this case there was a fully prepared and geared up mountaineer and a wannabe mountaineer who thought he didn’t need all the gear. It was a narrated sketched with some very funny actions and plenty of ideas can be used to perform this.

Another singing workshop with Ian covering the very basics of singing which can help you the stage. Ian's advice has been really helpful and has can help with speaking and acting parts out on stage with regard to making yourself heard.

We also have our first workshop about Opera, with David. We will be looking at a small selection of Operas.

We had a very very exciting singing work shop with Ian. It just proves that we can infact sing, though some say they can't.

We also looked at Operas including Carmen, Aide and the Magic Whistle and became familiar with some classical music numbers. Very interesting.
