Broadway Classroom Fall 2008

It's not too soon to put this fall's Broadway Classroom on your calendar. We'll be seeing In the Heights, winner of the 2008 Tony Award for Best Musical, on Wednesday, December 3. The pre-show workshop will be "Musical Theatre: Song and Movement," which has the participants recreate a true Broadway rehearsal, learning the choreography, staging, and music directly from the production they'll see later that day.

There are a total of 55 seats available for this event, with initially a maximum of 15 reserved for adults. The cost is $110 per person, with $55 due at time of registration to hold your seat. Download, fill out and return the registration form with your fee.

Guys and Dolls photo 2008 Spring Musical

Our show last spring was Guys and Dolls (music and lyrics by Frank Loesser, book by Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows), on March 6, 7 and 8. Call it sad, call it funny, but it's better than even money ...

The cast, crew, tech, pit, artists, costumers, make-up ladies and other students were all fantastic. Special thanks to our directors, producers, musicians, sound, sets and other teachers, and to all the volunteers who helped our Stars shine and made it another stand-out show!
