Storytelling Through Song: Finding the Truth Within the Text with Imogen Prossor

This workshop will mainly be focused on storytelling through song and how to create a believable character for performance. This will include; how to approach analysing the text of a song, acting techniques that Imogen has developed through her own performance opportunities, and how to use different vocal qualities effectively. There will be opportunities for students to put their learning into practice, with various exercises and classic workshop-style presentations.
