Have you wondered about all the work that goes into producing a musical? Planning begins months before the show dates. The process looks like this: first choose a musical, gather your creative team including sound and light, musicians, stage manager, ticket sellers, program design, set design, properties, set dates for auditioning, audition, cast, post the cast, choreograph, rehearse, block, run the show from beginning to end to tighten it up! Advertise and hope people will come! So, it is a lot of work, very rewarding and lots of fun! The Lakewood Youth Theater proudly presents the musical Totally Awesome 80’s on March 7 at 6:30 PM, March 8 at 1:30 PM and 6:30 PM. What sets us apart is that everyone who auditions is in the show! Pretty cool, huh? Plus, the last song is always signed and Friday night’s performance is interpreted for the Deaf community! If you would like to see this show e-mail me at chaos_born@att.net. My wish is that more productions include interpreted performances. Happily, YES Company always has one show interpreted for the Deaf Community! I hope to see you at the theater!
