UW-Whitewater’s Musical Theatre Day is an opportunity for middle and high school-age performers to work one-on-one with college voice and theatre faculty, meet college voice and theatre majors, and participate in musical theatre performance classes and small group sessions. Each participant will receive an individual voice lesson with a UW-Whitewater faculty member. Selected participants will perform at the end of the day on the final recital, and all participants will take part in a combined ensemble led by UW-Whitewater choral faculty. This clinic is available to singers in 7th grade and older, voice teachers, and choir directors.

UW-Whitewater's Musical Theatre Day is a great opportunity for singers to receive coaching on their audition repertoire!
