This year’s musical for the theater department is “High School Musical”. It debuts on May 6th and 7th, 2022. It is based on a popular movie series in the 2000’s. The students have been hard at work for months. The crew members have been working on the set, lighting, and helping perfect the mechanics to run the show. The actors and actresses have been rehearsing their lines and practicing dancing and movements.
The assistant director Lili Guicho states that the “Preparations are going pretty well, but we have had slight setbacks such as lighting and crew quitting. Almost all the dances are learned. Some people have never danced or sang before so there were some struggles there.” She says that it’s one of the more interesting musicals she participated in. There were a lot of fun moments and she said she made a lot of new friends along the way. In theater there is never a dull moment.
