CORE DIVISION Dance
The dance programs offered within our CORE division welcome students of any and all levels of skill and experience (no audition necessary). We offer classes for ages 5 and up.
Even if you don’t consider yourself a “dancer”, there is a really strong chance that your movement and dancing skills will be extremely crucial when it comes to musical theatre performance. Even if you’ve managed to get by without ever dancing in a musical, dance is an important and expressive tool for opening up your body and voice and releasing tension which is needed in character development, acting, and singing.
Marquee is not a dance “academy” or a dance competition school. Here, we focus on development and execution of dance and movement skills as they relate to musical theatre performance. All dance programs are introductory level classes meant to expose singers and actors to a wide variety of movement styles used for staged musicals. Our dance programming is centered around physical conditioning to improve strength and flexibility, practicing applicable dance technique and terminology, and learning multiple pieces of choreography in order to improve dance and performance ability and confidence on stage, in rehearsals, and at auditions.
All classes offered in our Core dance division will provide students with a better understanding of how dance and choreography ability brings performances to life.
