musician as... actorYou want to understand what I'm singing about?
Some people are born with perfect pitch, some the ability to control the volume and character of their voice, while others have a natural knack for the spotlight. Each of these attributes can contribute positively to a vocal performance, but these technical aspects and flourishes are secondary to the true goal of singing a song: conveying a message to the audience. Join professional actors and stage directors as they speak about what it takes to act the part! Special guests include: Featured Actors, Circle Theatre |
