Musical Review HS and MS
There is both comedy
and drama in the Arabian Nights. We're talking about 40 thieves, cruel
kings, etc. But any way you cut it, it's far, far, less tragic than
Medea. :-) Ditto for Alladin.
These are
definitely family friendly shows, suitable for all ages. We expect a lot
of younger children in the audience.
As I understand
it, the acting will be far easier in Arabian Nights and Alladin, but the tech
will be far more challenging. The sets and costumes will be more
complicated, and the kids will be building and operating puppets for parts of
Arabian Nights.
You can read more
about the Dominic Cooke adaptation of Arabian Nights at this website:
The original version
has 9 actors who play multiple roles. However, there are 53 roles in the
show, so there are plenty of parts, big and small, to go around for everyone.
Come join Homeschool Teens and Theatre (TNT) for our
exciting production of Dominic Cooke's "Arabian Nights",
our Cappies show for 2008. This entertaining adaptation of the
classic tales of a "Thousand and One Nights" is family friendly and
appropriate for all ages.
Performances will be Friday, April 4 at 7:00 pm, Saturday,
April 5 at 2:30 pm, Sunday April 6 at 2:30 pm, Friday April 11 at 7:00 pm,
Saturday April 12 at 2:30 pm, and Sunday April 13 at 2:30
pm. All performances are by our high school cast, with the
exceptions of the April 5th and 13th shows, which are performed by our middle
school cast.
