What does a musical theatre choreographer actually do? They just
'make up the steps', right? This book firstly debunks the
misunderstandings around what musical theatre choreographers
actually do, demonstrating their need to have an in-depth
understanding of storytelling, music theory, performance practices
and plot structure in order to create movement that enhances and
enlivens the musical. Secondly, it equips the musical theatre
choreographer with all the tools needed to create nuanced, informed
and inspired movement for productions, through structured
activities that build specific skills (such as 'notating the
script' and 'scoring the score'). Traditionally, this training has
been something of a series of secrets, passed from mentor to
apprentice. The author demystifies the process to make the
previously undisclosed “tricks of the trade” accessible to all
choreographers, everywhere. Covering the entire process of
choreographing a musical from the first script reading to the final
curtain call, this book makes case for the absolute integrity of
the choreographer to any musical theatre production and sets out
the theoretical principles of choreography alongside the practical
application during every step of the production process.
