Hello, Ross. Thanks for sharing your videos. It is amazing how musical theatre has changed over the years. The music of Rodgers & Hammerstein, Rodgers & Hart, Lerner & Loewe, the Gershwin Brothers, Cole Porter, Jerome Kern, Irving Berlin, etc. feels timeless to me. I love the great romance of the Golden Age of musicals. Nonetheless, it is good to be familiar with the operetta origins and the contemporary shows. Throughout the history of musical theatre and music performance, there is the commonality of providing audiences with the maximum enjoyment.

Hi Ross - another fantastic video - thanks for this - so helpful and valuable! I love your section on the golden age of musicals!

Thankyou Novela - I thought you might enjoy that part. But don't forget to include Pop/Rock songs too in your repertoire - a broad and varied rep folder is always a good plan!

Thanks for a detailed video this week on repertoire. Very good advice for any performer auditioning for musicals or drama school. I know you said these are the top 3 styles, but are there other styles to focus on?
