This work is the result of a research whose main objective was to identify, analyze and apply vocal pedagogical strategies that contribute to the construction of the character's vocal sound in Musical Theater. This is a study on vocal technique and the actor's interpretative practices during the song. The work is aimed at actors, singing teachers, vocal coaches and researchers in the field. After an introductory reflection, it is presented the result of an extensive bibliographical research based on authors such as Miller (1986), (1994), (2011), Costa e Silva (1998), Fuks (1999), Behlau (2001), Fernandes (2009), Gil e Herbst (2016), Silva e Herr (2016) on vocal technique and singing pedagogy, Cardoso (2016); (2017), Esteves (2014) about the sound and interpretive practices in brazilian Musical Theater, among other authors. Next, the development of the research in an extension group of Musical Theater at the UFRN School of Music is presented, where initially the vocal characteristics and needs of students are recognized, and later this work proposes an investigation and discussion on musical theater vocal pedagogical strategies used by renowned professionals in the field and active in the national market. Such strategies provide the basis for the elaboration and application of an experimental proposal to teach singing in the selected musical theater group, which is reported afterwards. Finally, the evaluations made during and at the end of the process are presented, pointing out the identified results. The research concludes that when teachers prepare the musical theater actor vocally, it is important that they teach basic singing techniques, applying speech (or spoken)-level singing and developing vocal resources so that the actor can express different personalities and emotions through a process of dramatic study and the actor's own interpretation. During the practice of the song, both text and music would be studied, investigating its style and the elements that compose it, proposing a vocal sound that better communicates the identified characteristics.
