Michelle will take participants through an engaging and interactive workshop focusing on the “storytelling” that is the foundation of all good music theatre through selected choreography and song from the musical “Cabaret”

The workshop will include:

• A choreography session taught by Michelle (no dance experience required) that will focus on the delivery of choreography to enhance the storytelling of the musical piece.
• A song delivery session. Participants will be taught a solo song and coached as a group how to make emotional shifts and get to the heart of the story through delivery of the piece.

We will conclude with participants having a chance to present the work to an audience of fellow festival members, public, friends and family. Maximum if 15-minute presentation.

This workshop doesn’t require a background in dance or singing but is rather geared to an actor’s approach to music theatre. Participants should not be below the age of 15.
