Dominic Lucien Luk

Dominic (Dom) has worn many hats over the past few decades in the Performing Arts industry: actor, director, producer, educator, and musician. In 2012, he co-founded Monday Show School of Musical Theatre with Benjamin Lin. The school focuses on using theatrical arts to create a powerful generation of creative, charismatic, and confident people. Children as young as 3 years old to adults with full-time careers come to learn how to sing, dance, and act, ultimately learning more about themselves.

Dominic has been teaching acting and singing with a focus on the art of telling stories on and off-stage in the most compelling ways. His passion lies in helping students learn more about themselves through fun and enjoyable drama lessons.

Dom holds a bachelor’s degree in music (vocal pedagogy) and performing arts from LASALLE College of the Arts (Singapore), a master’s degree in gender studies, and in historical musicology, with additional training in choral conducting and singing for musical theatre from Brandeis University and Harvard University (Boston, USA).

He has lectured at UITM, ASWARA, Sunway University, and UPM where he taught improvisation for actors, acting through song, vocal technique, ensemble singing and acting, theatre history, and musical theatre. In 2012, Dom co-founded Monday Show Entertainment with Benjamin Lin, a company which is now home to the most vibrant musical theatre school in the country. He is also an executive judge for the Kakiseni Cameronian Awards, and is Malaysia’s first and only drama examiner for Trinity College London.

Dominic has conducted many masterclasses and workshops for learners of all levels in cities like Kuala Lumpur, Kuching, Kota Kinabalu, Bangkok, Manila, Singapore, Boston, New York, Atlanta, and Ho Chi Minh. Dom is also the assistant head of Asia Pacific International School where he oversees the pastoral needs of students, a job which he is very proud of.

Making an impact is giving someone a reason to say “Wow, I am more capable than I think I am!”, and to let this feeling last for a long time. I want everyone to always be inspired by the things they do.
