Acting Through Song Masterclass with our Patron and West End Star Rachel Tucker!

Each term we invite guest industry professionals in, to hold thorough, technical and exciting West End Masterclasses. This term we looked at “Acting Through Song” in preparation for a stage performance or an industry audition and we were lucky enough to have the incredible Rachel Tucker come in and work with the students. Not only did she help advise each performer on their singing “technique” but she was also able to bring each and every student’s performance to life. This in turn created some incredibly magic and very special moments, that we hope all students will remember for the rest of their lives. She even ended the Masterclass with a fantastic performance of “The Wizard and I” from Wicked, which left everyone blown away!

We are thrilled that we are able to offer these kind of experiences to all our Take Flight attendees.
