High School Plays/Musicals

I'm heading over to Illinois for the next 2 days to see my niece in her high school play.
They're doing Charlotte's Web. Should be cute. I'll be back Sunday evening.

Makes me wonder ... how many of us were involved in our high school plays and musicals? My Senior year we did Diary of Anne Frank and I was Anne's sister Margot. Then in the spring of my Senior year we did Fiddler on the Roof. My hubby {who has a fabulous voice} was Tevye, and I was one of the daughters. I was the 3rd daughter who ran away with the Russian.

Really?! YOU ran away with the Russian? It seems so out of character for you. lol

I was in the chorus of South Pacific. I still love all the songs! My bother played the part of Emile de Becque. Fun stuff.

how fun!!! i love plays and musicals. i worked behind the scenes doing the make up.

My daughter was. They did GodSpell and it was awesome!

I was in middle school/high school theatre since 6th grade! I can't even begin to remember all the plays we did!

I KNOW we did C.S. Lewis's The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (I was Lucy), one year, and I think the year after we "I Never saw Another Butterfly." We also did, The Glass Menagerie by Tennessee Williams and Our Town by Thorton Wilder once too. For One act competition one year 4 of us girls did the play by Aurand Lewis titled Ladies of the Mop. LOVED it and if I remember correctly we took second place! Being we were a smaller school we did a lot of less popular plays and seldom any musicals.

In college, I worked in costuming for 2 or 3 years. Costumed The Pirates of Pensance, South Pacific, Noises Off, Our Town (again) and a BUNCH of student performed and written one acts!

My eldest caught the acting bug in middle school and performed in two plays in middle school and one so far in high school. Last year they did M.A.S.H. and he played Ho Jon. Quite funny actually - a very red headed, Irish boy playing a very dark haired Korean!
