WICKED Musical Theatre:
This session is taught by Broadway performers from WICKED. Sheet music will be provided to the group, who will then work with a cast member and a pianist learning a segment of "One Short Day". The workshop recreates a true Broadway rehearsal with the participants, who learn the choreography, staging and music directly from the show. In this session they will also be focusing on characterization and each participant will spend time creating their own character in Emerald City. Memorization, quick thinking and listening skills are a key component to this workshop.
Workshop Notes:

WICKED Choral Workshop:
Wednesday, February 29, 2012 or Wednesday, March 7, 2012
This 2-hour choral workshop geared towards choral groups, musical theatre students and show choirs will take your students into the musical world of WICKED, the Broadway phenomenon that has won 35 major awards including the Grammy Award and three Tony Awards. Students will learn music and movement from a song in the show and will have the opportunity to perform the piece with professional actors as well as other students from across the country. Then it's off to the matinee performance where Glinda and Elphaba and all the wonderful citizens of Oz bring this heartwarming story to magical life!
Once your group registers, you will be sent a choral arrangement of a song from the show to prepare. Our team will work with the group on presentation, nuance and movement at the workshop itself, but we ask that your group do some preliminary work learning parts, lyrics, etc. in advance of the event. After a lunch break, the group will gather at the Gershwin Theatre to see a performance of the show.
