New Surry Theatre Presents
Musical Theatre Dance Workshop
This workshop is three hours in length and will be broken into two parts.
- Part I is a dance class consisting of a short warm-up followed by the learning and execution of steps and combinations.
- Part II will take the material learned in Part I and incorporate it into a piece of choreography. The choreography will be that of a musical number selected from a Broadway musical.
The Musical Theatre Dance workshop will not meet this term, Maureen Robinson will be taking a sabbatical
