Students will come away with at least 4 contrasting songs, including up-tempo and ballad in both classic and contemporary styles, a Disney song, and a pop rock song; at least one classic monologue; basic dance moves; and proper audition etiquette. The class will culminate in a performance showcasing solos and ensembles.
