characters, and tell moving stories. Gain skills in creative thinking
and public speaking, building confidence in yourself and your
craft. Students choose current pop hits and musical theatre songs
to develop an original musical using their own creative ideas to
help write the play! They receive a speaking role, sing and dance

voices, visions, and ideas of our students.
