Musical theater is a form of stage performance that integrates multiple art forms such as music, drama, and dance, and it is widely popular around the world. Vocal performance lies at the core of musical theater. However, currently, there are issues in the vocal training methods for musical theater actors, including a disconnect between traditional teaching and modern requirements, as well as poor integration of various training methods. From an interdisciplinary perspective, this paper comprehensively utilizes research methods such as literature review, case analysis, and empirical research to deeply explore the impact of different vocal training methods on the performances and stage presentations of musical theater actors. The research findings indicate that training methods like bel canto and popular vocal music each have their own values and play crucial roles in aspects such as vocalization and character shaping. They are also closely related to stage acoustics, visual presentation, and the audience"s viewing experience. The research results provide a scientific basis for optimizing the vocal training of musical theater actors, helping to enhance their professional qualities and stage performance quality, and promoting the high-quality development of the musical theater industry.
