Performance Course – TOTHECORE

ToTheCore is a professionally run performing arts training company directed by Zak Nemorin. Through separate enrolment and added course fee it may lead to the Level 4 ATCL Diploma.

It was created in association with Millennium Performing Arts, The Dancers Development Fund, & TheJazzCore Company.

ToTheCore aims to provide its members with a well-rounded experience performing in a professional company.

Company members gain valuable guided practice in the art of independent training, performance and stage craft, theatre etiquette and working as both a solo artist as well as an ensemble member.

This course normally runs from April to June (with a half term break) and consists of:

• Company classes held at the MPA studios in Central London
• Rehearsals for performance pieces with current leading industry professionals
• Performance opportunities similar to a professional company, both in solo work and ensemble
• Opportunity to create material for a showreel
• Opportunity to learn valuable audition skills by experiencing auditions in real time and via self-taping for acceptance onto the cast of a piece.

Company classes and workshops include disciplines such as ballet, jazz dance, contemporary dance, tap dance, hip hop, commercial dance, singing, acting, and body management.

A typical morning session would include warm-up or training classes in dance and/or vocal work, depending on the activities of the afternoon sessions, which are devoted to rehearsals and the creation of show material, to be performed at several opportunities throughout the term.
