2010 Performing Arts Musical

Well, children, school will be officially out for the summer in one hour and ten minutes. And we have an announcement to make (not a moment too soon...)

The 2010 Performing Arts Musical will be:


Mixing a world of fantasy with classical musical theatre, Hillcrest will attempt a fresh look at a story about dreams and inner worth.
For an idea of the direction we will be going with our production of "Cinderella," watch this Youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpeLwDRjBg4
We of course will not be copying this production, but it is the closest to what we are hoping to do with it.

We will need some great classical voices, physically out-there dancers, ballroom dancers, and comic actors (both physically and vocally), so start working on those things over the summer. And if you want to be considered to play a lead role, you now have plenty of time to research the style of the show!

So, kids, this is turning out to be a fantastic season of theatre. We will have Shakespeare in October, classic musical theatre in November, avant-grade mixed with greek mythology (and a swimming pool...)in January, British comedy dinner theatre in March, and cutting edge contemporary musical theatre in May. What more could you want?

Excited...
