TBDC-Visualguide-2016.Pdf MISSION The days of being “just” a dancer are over. You have to be able to do it all. The Broadway Dance Collective was created to give students the tools necessary to flourish in today’s American Musical Theatre by connecting them with Broadway’s finest working professionals. The Broadway Dance Collective is a 4-hour Musical Theatre Master Class Tour where students are split into three groups (Youth, Teen, and College) and take breakout classes in Musical Theatre Jazz, Broadway Tap, Vocal Performance, and Audition Techniques. WHO WE ARE Collectively our Broadway Teaching Artists have performed in over 100 Broadway shows. We have trained at our nation’s most prestigious Universities, graced the World’s greatest stages, trained students across the Globe and are ready to share the information! You will learn original Broadway choreography from the dancers who are currently performing it on Broadway. The day will culminate with a Parent Presentation and Industry Q&A. THE TRUTH Broadway producers want to invest in an ensemble of storytellers who can do everything. Separate singing and dancing ensembles are a practice of the past. Come get the tools. Don’t come to be perfect. Don’t not come because you “can’t” do one of the disciplines. Come to get ready.

What the people are saying “One of the BEST experiences my daughter has ever had! What she learned in this 4-hour workshop, was not only fun, but will stay with her for years to come. Robert and the rest of the team were nothing but professional, fun, outgoing, and incredibly knowlegeable.” – Natalie “What an amazing experience! My daughter has been to many classes and workshops but to be taking classes with today’s Broadway stars was really something special!” – Cindee “As a parent, I loved coming in at the end seeing all the dancers smiling and having a blast! She has attended many workshops and she says was by far her favorite!” – Jenny “My daughter is 18 and has trained in NYC with some of the top in the business. Went into this event somewhat tentatively but instead found a workshop that not only can compete with anything in Manhattan, it rivals or surpasses the best out there! Hard to find true Broadway quality jazz, tap AND voice all in one place. If the B’way Dance Collective visits your city, sign up!” – Melissa “So much of dance now is based around competitions and huge conventions, it is refreshing to have opportunities like this to open the kids eyes to the professional world!” – Jessica “I couldn’t have asked for better role models to work with my daughter.” – Heather “Going in as a singer, I knew that the class would be a struggle and a challenge. Everything taught was taught for improvement. I loved every second of it. The teachers are terrific and always there to help!” – Ivan “Beyond voice and dance, this experience builds self-esteem, imparts life skills applicable to any future endeavor, and affords an opportunity to move beyond one’s comfort zone – but all wrapped in the gifts of kindness and humbleness. If you have the opportunity to participate in this class, go for it! It’s amazing! Your dancer likely will see new personal possibilites as a result.” – David “Expect a professional, fast-paced class that woke my daughter up to the level she needs to attain to continue a career in musical theater. My daughter took home the importance of being prepared physically and mentally for the next level!” – Chris “If you get a chance to study under these very talented professional dancers and singers, you better be there!!!” – Juan “They teach you how to break out of your shell and sing like nobody is listening. They were very patient and very welcoming! I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to be on Broadway.” – Lily “It will open their eyes to a whole new world and show them how to tell a story in a whole new way!!” – Emily “They used words like ‘when you are living in New York and going to auditions’ and ‘when you go to a dance call’ which made the kids feel that they were really taking their dreams and goals very seriously.” – Melissa #bwaycollective @bwaycollective CLass schedule TIME GROUP A GROUP B GROUP c 8:00-8:30AM Group Warm up 8:20-9:20AM Musical Theatre Jazz Vocal Performance Broadway Tap 9:20-10:10AM Vocal Performance Broadway Tap Musical Theatre Jazz 10:10-11:00AM broadway Tap Musical Theatre Jazz Vocal Performance 11:00-11:30AM Parent Presentation 11:30-12:00PM Industry Q&A HOW TO REGISTER Each student’s parent can register and pay directly on our site! www.bwaycollective.com stay connected @BWAYCollective #BWAYCollective 646.801.0773 [email protected] © The Broadway Collective, Inc.

  • Broadway Starts to Rock: Musical Theater Orchestrations and Character, 1968-1975 By
    Broadway Starts to Rock: Musical Theater Orchestrations and Character, 1968-1975 By Elizabeth Sallinger M.M., Duquesne University, 2010 B.A., Pennsylvania State University, 2008 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Musicology and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Chair: Paul R. Laird Roberta Freund Schwartz Bryan Kip Haaheim Colin Roust Leslie Bennett Date Defended: 5 December 2016 ii The dissertation committee for Elizabeth Sallinger certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Broadway Starts to Rock: Musical Theater Orchestrations and Character, 1968-1975 Chair: Paul R. Laird Date Approved: 5 December 2016 iii Abstract In 1968, the sound of the Broadway pit was forever changed with the rock ensemble that accompanied Hair. The musical backdrop for the show was appropriate for the countercultural subject matter, taking into account the popular genres of the time that were connected with such figures, and marrying them to other musical styles to help support the individual characters. Though popular styles had long been part of Broadway scores, it took more than a decade for rock to become a major influence in the commercial theater. The associations an audience had with rock music outside of a theater affected perception of the plot and characters in new ways and allowed for shows to be marketed toward younger demographics, expanding the audience base. Other shows contemporary to Hair began to include rock music and approaches as well; composers and orchestrators incorporated instruments such as electric guitar, bass, and synthesizer, amplification in the pit, and backup singers as components of their scores.

  • SHUBERT THEATER, 221-233 West 44Th Street, Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission December 15, 1987; Designation List 198 LP-1378 SHUBERT THEATER, 221-233 West 44th Street, Manhattan. Built 1912-13; architect, Henry B. Herts. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1016, Lot 15 in part consisting of the land on which the described building is situated. On June 14 and 15, 1982, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a pub 1 ic hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Shubert Theater and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 74). The hearing was continued to October 19, 1982. Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Eighty-one witnesses spoke or had statements read into the record in favor of designation. One witness spoke in opposition to designation. The owner, with his representatives, appeared at the hearing, and indicated that he had not formulated an opinion regarding designation. The Commission has received many 1 etters and other express ions of support in favor of this designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The Shubert Theater survives today as one of the historic theaters that symbolize American theater for both New York and the nation. Built in 1912-13, shortly before World War I, to the designs of Henry B. Herts, the Shubert was one of a pair with the Booth, and was among the numerous theaters constructed by the Shuberts, one of the most active and influential families in American theater history. The Shubert was built as a memorial to Sam S. Shubert, leader of the family's theatrical enterprises until his untimely death in a train wreck.

  • A Chorus Line: Does It Abide by Rules Established by Actors’ Equity Association for the Audition Process?
    A CHORUS LINE: DOES IT ABIDE BY RULES ESTABLISHED BY ACTORS’ EQUITY ASSOCIATION FOR THE AUDITION PROCESS? by MARK W. HARDIN B.M. East Texas Baptist University, 1991 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Fine Arts in the Department of Theatre in the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Central Florida Orlando, Florida Spring Term 2006 © 2006 Mark W. Hardin ii ABSTRACT I have been cast as “Bobby” in A Chorus Line at Orlando Broadway Dinner Theatre in Orlando. I will use this opportunity as my thesis role. As part of my thesis defense, I will combine an analysis of the character of “Bobby” in A Chorus Line with an assessment of Actors’ Equity Association’s audition policies from 1970 to the present, and investigate whether the audition held in the show abides by the policies established by AEA for Broadway calls. “Bobby” has an interesting arc of development as he actually gives the director what he (the director) does not want, yet is still cast in the fictitious Broadway show. Why he would choose to stray from the director’s instructions is an interesting question and demanding study. To facilitate my research on the character (aside from script and score analysis), I will interview Thommie Walsh (about for whom the role was written and the original “Bobby” on Broadway) as well as other men who have played the role to get insights into the character that will enhance my performance. Mr. Walsh will also elaborate on his real-life relationship with Michael Bennett and how that compares and contrasts with the relationship between “Bobby” and “Zach.” I also will interview as many of the original cast members as possible (namely Baayork Lee) to get contributing memories and anecdotal evidence from the original production.
