FANTASTIC MUSICAL THEATER DOCUMENTARY

Saw a terrific and moving documentary the other night called MOST VALUABLE PLAYERS that follows three high school theater programs and their creative journeys to the "Freddy Awards" - the Tony Awards for high school musical theater.

It's such an important film in a time when arts education continues to shrink in our schools.

You can see the trailer here:

I become a fan of the film on Facebook. You should too:

Agreed - thanks for the info. Where can we see it?

The Los Angeles Times mentions the movie this morning in their "Culture Monster Blog."

I just signed up for their e-list so I can get an e-mail to remind me to watch these online. The article said they are also streamed live so this might be fun to watch. I am from Pennsylvania but the the area that participates. I would have loved to have been a part of this in school!
