The Athletic Artist: Physical and Vocal Demands in Musical Theatre
Wednesday 26th November 2025
5 pm - 8 pm (GMT)
Join us for our very first online symposium, dedicated to bridging the gap between artistic training and athletic conditioning for performers!
Musical theatre artists are truly hybrid athletes, balancing the physical rigor of dance and movement with the precise vocal demands of singing. Yet, unlike professional athletes, they often train without the same focus on conditioning, injury prevention, and long-term health. Our goal is to change that.
This symposium will elevate awareness of the unique demands placed on musical theatre performers and define best practices for their training and care. By bringing together experts from various disciplines—from vocal coaches and choreographers to physical therapists and athletic trainers—we aim to create a dialogue that promotes the longevity and well-being of every performer.
Join us as we explore new ways to approach training, conditioning, and artistic excellence, ensuring that the show goes on for years to come.
