MUSICAL THEATRE
The emphasis is on a complete performance and presentation, rather than solely a study of music and will show ability in acting, singing, dancing and choreographic skills. Performances must show implicit dramatic content with portrayal of characters and their motivations. This is an opportunity to explore style, form and character through communicating the dramatic context of a musical text. Extracts from plays may be edited to create dialogue moving into musical scenes. [See copyright rules].
Choreographers using tapes created from commercial recordings are advised that they are themselves responsible for seeking permission to re-record from the recording companies concerned. Performers or Teachers with queries on how to obtain copyright permission for performance items should contact Festivals House [British and International Federation of Festivals] on 01625 428297 or email at info@federationoffestivals.org.uk before making their entries.
