Footloose the Musical
色窝窝无码一区二区三区 students kicked off their Sunday shoes for their performances of the musical 鈥淔ootloose鈥 at the first-ever summer musical camp last weekend.
In partnership with , the summer musical camp was a two-week program for selected junior high and high school students at the Dr. Marcelo Cavazos Center for Visual & Performing Arts. Students learned and performed a fully staged musical while building relationships with kids from other theater departments.
With state and federal funding, students could attend the camp at no cost to their families, with breakfast and lunch provided.
鈥淚 love that students are representative from across the district; I love that this has never been done before,鈥 said Micah Green, 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 coordinator of theater and dance. 鈥淚t鈥檚 community building within theatre.鈥
Every theater teacher selected students with an interest in musical theater. Being invited to the camp was an honor as each student received a congratulatory letter. This year, a total of 30 students took part in the program.
鈥淚 was ecstatic,鈥 said Martin High School incoming freshman Calleigh White. 鈥淚 was so excited. I love Footloose and when I heard he picked me and one of my best friends, I was really excited.鈥
The audition process for casting took place on day one. It consisted of a small choreography routine, preparing two songs to sing [30 seconds each] and cold readings of the script.
In just nine days, costumes, props, sound, choreography, casting and music were ready for the final show.
The first year of summer musical camp was a huge success, with both Friday and Saturday night performances sold out. The performances sold out despite no advertising of the events going out.
鈥淭he goal is to do this every year,鈥 said Green.
Students are already looking forward to what鈥檚 next with the camp.
鈥淚t鈥檚 just really rewarding to have finished a show and to have all the audience clapping for you, that鈥檚 my favorite part of it,鈥 said White. 鈥淭en out of ten I would do it again.鈥
