| Abstract | This project analyzes the creative process of choreographing a musical; specifically, my journey within my debut as the sole choreographer of Sister Act! with Theatre TCU. I will describe my journey to becoming a choreographer, challenges and surprises I faced, problem solving tactics I used, and an analysis of the final outcome. I'll share details from the casting process, rehearsals, production meetings, choreography sessions, and actual performances. Through this journey, I have learned more about myself and how to create and communicate artistic vision, as well as methods to use choreography as a tool to enhance storytelling. The account being shared must always be the priority for storytellers. Collaboration is key, and having the opportunity to work with the professional artists widened my perspective to the possibilities for creative expression and strategies to generating meaningful works of high quality entertainment. |
