THR 425 - Acting the Song1 course unit In this course, students will develop a common language and approach to the study and practice of song interpretation and musical theatre performance through mind, body, and emotion. Through the use of a variety of techniques and exercises beginning with personalization and sense imagery as tools for song interpretation along with fundamentals of acting learned through Acting I and II the actor will develop the skills necessary to tell the story, illuminate the lyric and capture the attention and imagination of an audience.
