Their book encourages each actor to explore their own authentic voice as opposed to offering a 'one-size-fits-all' or 'quick-fix' approach

elements of technique
how to work on a song
the process of singing theatrically
how to choose the best songs for you
Featuring inspirational listening suggestions and the observations of successful performers and practitioners, Singing on Stage: An Actor's Guide is a must-have companion for actors who wish to develop their understanding of singing on stage
