Song to be Staged: “Another Day of Sun" from La La Land 

Class Description: This progressive series will give you a glimpse into what it is like to stage a production number. You will have the opportunity to focus on practicing performance, stage presence, and storytelling while learning formations, blocking and longer choreography! The goal of this series is to give each dancer the opportunity to learn and perform a musical theater number from beginning to end, telling a whole story with movement, while still enabling you to build confidence and have fun.

Each class within the series will be 2 hours, and will still include a brief warm-up. Class will be taught at an Intermediate pace and level.

WEEKS 1 & 2: We will start each class with a brief warm-up before moving into learning the choreography. We will discuss and explore movement patterns, formation changes, spacing, performance textures and dynamics. At the end of Week 2, we will discuss costumes and how they influence characters and individuality in group numbers.

WEEK 3: We will spend the first half of class reviewing the choreography, cleaning and answering questions and the second half of the class running the combo. Remember, these run-throughs do not have to be perfect as this is still "the rehearsal room." Before these run-throughs, there will be a brief 5 minutes to allow you to change into any costume pieces, hair and make-up that you would like to put on. 

This time around, Purple Fox Productions will be professionally filming and editing the full number! You will have it as a keepsake of the experience: a personal performance that you can forever treasure.

This Series will require some personal practice outside of the studio on your own time.

Level Description: This is an Intermediate level series. Significant dance experience (ie, many years of training) is recommended for this level. If you have danced most of your life and want to continue challenging yourself while having fun, this class is for you. Dancers in this level have a deep understanding of the basic elements of the style and are competent at learning and retaining moderate to quick choreography taught at a moderate pace. Class will have a focus on choreography and you will not review the basic and foundational steps of the style in this level. In certain styles, you will most likely see technical elements (such as leaps and turns) and floorwork. Choreography will be between 30-60 seconds in length, with moderate complexity and moderate to fast tempos. Choreography will likely not repeat movements frequently. You will see a variety of differences between instructors in this level. There will be modifications for movements if needed.
