  • a breakdown of belting & mixing
  • how to find your own sustainable sound
  • tips for singing your way through a vocally demanding show
  • coaching a 16-32 bar cut of a song, for select volunteers*

Curriculum is tailored for young professionals ages 18-30, but all ages and all experience levels are welcome.

Building up a sustainable belt and chest mix are some of the most important skills vocalists can master. This FREE workshop is perfect for students looking to gain some knowledge of their own unique vocal instrument, while also learning some tips and tricks of how to keep it healthy during those long months of rehearsals and performances.

*For those that would like to volunteer to have a coaching session of their piece during the workshop, please be sure to register ahead of time for free on The Ghostlight website. We will send you what to prepare if interested in an email leading up to the event.

Anna is trained in the Meisner technique and is also certified in Levels 1 + 2 of the LoVetri Institute for Somatic Voicework™.

SILENCE! the Musical Runs Sept. 8-17

CSP_Silence the MusicalSILENCE! the Musical
CenterStage Players
Sept. 8-17
Arts Center at Dunham [West Price Hill]

Directed by Sean-Walker Mize
Produced by Mark Culp & Rebecca Coots

Cast: Faith Gingrich Goetz-Isaacs as Clarice Starling, Jeff Richardson as Dr. Hannibal Lecter, Justin Stallkamp as Buffalo Bill, Heather O’Meara as Catherine Martin, Rebecca Mullins-Jones as Senator Martin, Rick Hunt as Crawford, Corey Meyer as Dr. Chilton, Jasmyn Jewell as Ardelia, Paul Henkler as Papa Starling & Hannah Berlin Petry as Lamb

A “so wrong it’s right” musical spoof of the Oscar-winning film The Silence of the Lambs.  The show offers a comedic twist to the story of FBI agent-in-training Clarice Starling as she begins interviews with a convicted cannibalistic murderer, Dr. Hannibal Lecter, in hopes of tracking down a serial killer on the loose. Starling believes Lecter may have information about the unknown criminal. A former psychologist, Lecter only agrees to help Starling if she is willing to discuss her troubled childhood.  The film is transformed into a full-scale musical, complete with singing serial killers, unprintable titles, and a chorus of tap-dancing lambs. Contains strong language and adult situations.  Viewer discretion is advised.

  • Fri-Sat, Sept. 8-9 at 7:30pm
  • Sun, Sept. 10 at 2pm
  • Thu-Sat, Sept. 1416 at 7:30pm
