Zoie Lee is making a name for herself as a Musical Theater performer, and triple-threat. While on break from the National Tour of Chicago, she stopped back in to her old choir room to talk to me about the role music education had in shaping her career.

This conversation explores the journey of a performer from their early experiences in dance to their current role in a Broadway National Tour. The discussion delves into the importance of choir in developing music literacy, professionalism, and vocal technique, as well as the challenges of stage fright and the realities of working in the performing arts. We also explore the intricate relationship between vocal training, musical theater, and the importance of choir in developing versatile singing skills. Zoie points out the various styles of singing required in different musicals, the journey from high school to professional theater, and the significance of environment and education in shaping a performer’s career. This episode also touches on:

  • Preparation is key to overcoming performance anxiety.
  • Professionalism in the arts involves both independence and guidance.
  • Work-life balance is a continuous challenge for artists.
