(Almost) All White

Right! Theres a school in my area. Its a white area with a well known high school theatre program. They have announced their show for next year (ITH) and tbh as an adult who loves seeing high school shows to support the youth I was dissapointed. I dont want them to think its okay to white wash a culture.

(Almost) All White "In the Heights"?
Jul 7
2020, 01:13:26 PM
How do you feel about about a predominately white high school performing In the Heights? I know LMM has spoken out and said he's okay with it as long as White performers aren't given roles over Hispanic performers. That being said, it is still kind of baffling to me that schools would choose this show. An all white school wouldn't pick Hairspray or Ragtime and have the African- American characters played by White people. So why is it okay to have Hispanic roles played by white act

Books made into musicals?

Bringing this back!
Dumplin'- Julie Murphy: I imagine it as a hairspray type of musical with a country-style of music. Kind of a hands-on a hardbody and hairspray love child.
Simon vs. the Homosapien's Agenda- Becky Albertalli: I see it as a campy, fun but deep musical. The mom's speech would be a perfect ballad.
Perks of Being A Wallflower: This would be perfect as a DEH type of musical!
Emma- Jane Austen: Theres a jukebox version of the show set in mo

Bells of Notre Dame from Disney's Hunchback. It tells the whole story from Frollo's teenage years up until the present. It is a very spectacular number, that with proper staging will wow an audience. (Many oppurtunities for solos as well.)
Joy of the Lord from Hands on a Hardbody. If you have a fantastic high belter that can screlt songs for jesus like a pro than this is the song for you. Lots of solos as well.
Ex-Wives from Six would be fantastic. (Boys could sing solos too, i

Saddest musical?

Hunchback of Notre Dame is probably by far the saddest show I've seen. Only growing up with the Disney movie I assumed the endings would be the same. Boy was I wrong lol!

Movies That Will Be Adapted Into Musicals
Jul 28
2019, 10:22:01 PM
Technically this has already been adapted into a musical, but it'd be nice if it had more songs and actually made it to broadway. That show is The Bridge to Terabithia. It is such a beautiful movie that I wish more people got to experience. I would also love for the Disney Channel movie Lemonade Mouth to become a Broadway musical.

Picking a musical

2019, 02:42:54 PM
Hello, my friends and I are starting up a youth theater, we have three possible venues that have accepted to have us work there. We just have one problem- picking the first show. Our theatre lets youth ages 7- 18 audition, and everyone who auditions is cast (due to the fact that it is an educational theater.) We had a couple of choices but we would like new ideas, as we don't know if our choices would work.
Our possible venues are as follows:

Catholic High School Musical Choices

To spark more interest in the drama program, choose a well known show. For example if you were to choose The Little Mermaid many more kids would audition, if you are up to it almost any Disney show will spark some buzz within your school. Some other titles that could work for any school are Annie, Peter Pan, Oliver!, and Music Man. If you would like to reflect on the religious aspect of your school some great shows would be godspell or children of eden.

They have done 16 illegal productions from the MTI catalogue, not to mention any other non MTI shows. I looked at their facebook page and they also helmed illegal productions of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child and The Greatest Showman. What do you guys think of this?

I think we are going to do OOTI JR, because it would be cool to help educate students on how to perform with a round stage. We were just talking about it and we will probably base the set off of the revival.
