Description
Some actors are happy in their speaking voices but would never dream of singing. Others feel they lack the
technical knowledge necessary to sing with confidence. Still others are keen to audition for singing roles, or
are being encouraged by agents to do so, but doubt their abilities. Did you know that you already have the
vocal abilities you need? That a shout can become a beautiful belt? That your ‘radio voice’ can help you sing
musical theatre ballads? Come along and discover what your voice can do!
Over a fun and informative session, you will discover the myriad possibilities of your voice. Topics covered
include:
• Breath Support Made Clear
• Resonance: What it really is and how to achieve it
• Different ‘Gears’, Characters and Vocal Colours
• The ‘cherry on top’ of your sound: Vibrato, Style, Safe Distortion
The session will combine group and solo work, in a supportive, positive learning environment, where actors
can try out different aspects of their voice, free of judgment. The speaking voice and the singing voice are
ultimately the same voice, and all actors can benefit from, and enjoy, singing.
