year‚ I had never had the opportunity to attend a musical theatre master class. On the other hand‚ I am extremely accustomed to dancer master classes and I found it interesting to compare and contrast the way classes are held. Each Friday the dancer department takes a master class with a different professional dancer. Besides the specific dance genre‚ the classes possess numerous similarities to each other. This was not the case for the two musical theatre master classes I attended this year. I found
