“One of the greatest pleasures I find in the arts is to be astonished at human ability...Such a spectacle of gratuitous talent incites me, not only to praise the artist, but to praise God for giving such ability to human beings.” Gene Veith, State of the Arts

The time has come for the auditions for our spring music! We are putting on "Cinderella" on April 7th-9th! This show is a lot of fun and I hope to see many at the auditions. If you are unfamiliar with the show, you can read the synopsis here (in this link, on the left of the page is more information). And for you guys out there - this is NOT the Disney version. I know it is still Cinderella, but I think you will find the show quite humorous. There are 2 lead male roles and 6 lead female roles, along with a chorus of about a dozen. If you intend on auditioning, you must attend at least one of the music workshops with Mrs. Selby. The workshops will be afterschool from 3:10-3:30 on January 14, and during lunch on January 18th and 19th. You are welcome to come to all of the workshops. You will be learning the music with which you will be auditioning. Rather than each person selecting his/her own piece of music, each student will audition with the assigned song, "Ten Minutes Ago". The actual auditions will be held on January 19th-20th from 3pm-5:30pm in Mr. Madden's room. During the audition you will individually sing the assigned song. Please sign up for a musical audition time slot on the sheet posted by Mrs. Selby's room. You will also be performing readings from the script. You need only to attend one of the audition dates. Attending both days does not increase your odds of recieving a part. If you have any other questions, ask Mr. Madden. I hope to see you at the audition!

Rogers and Hammerstein! I adore this one! "Impossible" and "In My Own Little Corner" are among my favorite songs as well as "10 Minutes Ago". Maybe I'll drive 750 miles to come see your spring musical again this year. You always do a wonderful job!
