Abstract: Musicianship for Musical Theatre: A new instructional resource for the musical theatre student studying music theory. There is currently no suitable textbook for the musical theatre student that teaches only the practical music theory and ear-training skills needed to be successful in their field. As a result, musicianship skills remain consistently underdeveloped for students graduating from baccalaureate musical theatre programs. Through identifying the literacy needs of the musical theatre performer and comparing them with the learning outcomes of the existing literature, this document provides insight into the curricular gaps that exist for the musical theatre student studying music theory. After careful examination, a three-chapter sample of a new textbook is proposed to provide an alternate resource for the musical theatre student that directly addresses these specific curricular needs.
