COURSE DESCRIPTION
As a Bachelor of Musical Theatre graduate, you will have gone through many facets of training to become highly skilled, musically adaptable and equipped to enter professional life as creative and flexible 21st century musical theatre performer.
As a student, you will be exposed to diverse musical theatre styles and to the broadly accepted musical skills of aural awareness training, music theory and ensemble work appropriate to this genre.
Studying musical theatre at the Queensland Conservatorium will provide you with intensive practical training in acting and improvisation, speech, voice, singing, dance and movement, focused on producing the ‘triple threat’ performer – one who is proficient in singing, acting and movement.
The productions included in the degree emulate professional productions, thereby providing students with authentic professional experiences.
My career opportunities
There is an identified shortage of professionally trained musical theatre performers throughout Australia. At the same time, there is an increasing number of musical theatre productions being toured throughout Australia and an increasing demand for musical theatre product.
As a graduate, you will be skilled in singing, acting and dancing and be equipped to perform in cabaret, theatre, television, film and musical theatre, as well as more diverse entertainment mediums such as festival, theme parks and cruises. There is endless variety in this broad area of entertainment. It is expected that graduates will write and produce their own work for public performance.
