Steps to Storytelling: Integrating Dance with Music and Lyrics

A great majority of Musical Theatre would not be what it is without the inclusion of DANCE! But how is this style of dancing different from other styles? What role does dance and movement take in the telling of a story on stage? And how does a choreographer create all of this from scratch?

Join ASU professor Molly Lajoie and her students as they explore the history of various dance styles in musical theatre, with live performance demonstrations. You’ll learn about the choreography process, and may just find yourself tapping your feet on the way out!
