I’m over the moon to announce that we have the joy of welcoming British-Filipino mezzo-soprano, Marienella Phillips back by popular demand, to lead another Sharing Event in December.
We’re delighted to announce that Marienella Phillips will be with us again in December to explore what it means to be a singing actor, sharing techniques and strategies required improve our singing from a musical, dramatic, and imaginative viewpoint.
This relaxed one-day course will focus on studying singing from an actor's perspective, linking vocal technique with truthful storytelling. Under the guidance of Marienella, participants will present a song of their choice to a friendly and supportive audience of their peers.
