Posted: 2/1/09 at 12:13pmMy school's director just enjoys doing more than fluff shows. We're doing Light in the Piazza this year and did Parade like three years ago. Sunday turned out pretty good, actually...the biggest complaint was that it was too slow but musically at least it was superb. Even though our George was VERY quiet...like sometimes barely audible.

The pictures from Sunday look great!
I'm still really curious if anyone has ever heard of a high school doing A Little Night Music?

my first musical was Sondheim! We (my middle school) did "Into the Woods" and i was the Baker's Wife. We didn't do the jr. version, but we did cut the whole Baker's Wife sleeping with the Prince thing...so most of "Moments in the Woods" was cut.
I remember everyone saying how good it was and then I saw the video of it and I just wanted to crawl into a hole out of shame, hahaha. My gosh, I was so awful. I hadn't seen or heard of it before so I had no idea what I was doing. But hey, my very first musical I ever did was Sondheim!
I'd love to do ITW again...and not be awful...

Posted: 2/1/09 at 5:40pmA middle school in my area did Into The Woods. I remember (4 years ago) being super jealous because we got stuck with "School House Rock."

Posted: 2/1/09 at 5:43pmInto the woods is quite common. But I'm moderately surprised to see Sunday and almost shocked to see Passion being performed by high schools!

Posted: 2/1/09 at 9:31pmMy HS also did Into the Woods last year. Though I guess that is one of the more tame Sondheim shows.

Posted: 2/1/09 at 10:13pmugh i was begging my director to do Night Music last year because it has tons of talented singing girls and we had about 15 uber talented senior girls...then somehow we got stuck doing Oliver =(. I'd love to do Passion...that is so cool. In fact, I'm gonna propose that in my acting class =)

Posted: 2/1/09 at 10:18pmI was in a decent middle/high school version of Sweeney back in the day. Though it is awkward having a chorus of "men" who's voices haven't change. We DID have an age-appropriate Toby though who was quite good:)

Wow. I would have loved to have seen video or pictures from that!

A high school IS doing NIGHT MUSIC

I think it's absolutely disgusting if a HS did PASSION. Then again I think it's equally awful to do COMPANY, FOLLIES, NIGHT MUSIC, & SUNDAY.
