About the Book

Need a little help taking your musical theatre classes to the next level?

Introducing Teaching Musical Theatre: The Essential Handbook, a new resource packed with 16 ready-to-go lesson plans that will turn your young performers into musical theatre triple-threats. This book is the highly anticipated follow-up to Teaching Drama: The Essential Handbook which has sold over 10,000 copies worldwide.

With this book you'll receive:

  • A semester's worth of cumulative lessons perfect for students age 7-14
  • Notes on how to introduce musical theatre concepts in a way kids will instantly absorb
  • Tips and tools on easy ways to transition between activities and lessons
  • A guide on how to plan a performance at the end of the semester
  • Useful reflection and journaling exercises after every lesson.
Below are just a few of the topics covered in the lessons:
  • What is musical theatre? Students will explore the origin of musical theatre and the shows that have defined the genre.
  • Storytelling in Musicals. Students will learn about the "emotional staircase" and how it's the basis of storytelling in musical theatre.
  • Music in Musicals. Students will develop an understanding of how music is used to convey character and emotion, and how that understanding can help strengthen and inform their acting choices.
  • Singing Musical Theatre. Students will develop an understanding of proper singing technique and how to use their voice to captivate an audience.
  • Dance and Movement. Students will learn how dance and movement contribute to musical storytelling and become familiar with basic choreography.
  • Acting the Song. Students will understand the importance of "acting a song" as opposed to just "performing a song", and learn how to give nuanced, compelling performances.
  • And much more!
