The Importance of Dance in Musical Theatre

Have you ever considered the role of dance training in musical theatre and its benefits? At SMASH, we set the stage for every student to shine, creating opportunities for all, regardless of their initial skill level. By bypassing the traditional audition process, we ensure every student plays a part in our productions, fostering an environment brimming with excitement and anticipation.

Elevating Performances through Dance

Learning choreography at SMASH is not just an add-on; it's a fundamental aspect of our curriculum. A solid foundation in dance elevates any character, adding vibrancy and finesse to their performance. More than that, it increases a student's chances of landing desired roles. Dance doesn't just support a character; it often becomes a character itself, expressing emotions and stories through movement.

In every SMASH production, the unity of the ensemble is paramount. Whether in a lead or supporting role, dance allows each performer to contribute significantly to the story. This training is less about mastering routines and more about developing versatility. It enables students to adapt to various roles, understanding their nuances and expressing their emotions with every step.

Why Dance Matters at SMASH

Dance is a language of its own in musical theatre and we recognize its power to bring narratives to life and express emotions that words alone cannot. It's the difference between a good performance and a standing ovation. Whether it’s tap, jazz, or ballet, our dance classes prepare students for any role, ensuring they’re always performance-ready.

Ultimately, every dance step at SMASH is a step towards growth. We invite students to embrace dance, not just as a skill but as a journey of personal and artistic development. Our dance classes are designed to enhance every student’s performance, helping them find their rhythm both on and off the stage.
