The Music Man

The theater department hardly finished Stage Door, before it started working on its new project, The Music Man.

The first week of November, students began rehearsing for the musical, which premieres on Feb. 3, 4 and 5 with curtains at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday and Friday and a 2 p.m. matinee on Saturday.

Approximately 50 students including actors, crew and orchestra members, rehearse every day after school. Along with acting they also have to practice their vocals. The theater department will put this show on the stage with fewer than 30 rehearsals; there are professional companies that do not attempt that.
