THEATRE THE CURTAIN IS UP AND THE STAGE IS SET FOR YOUR CHILD TO BE INSPIRED BY THE MAGIC OF THEATRE! 2018 Spring Theatre Show: “High School Musical Jr” Sun May 6, 2017, at Elm Place Middle School. Final Rehearsals will be held on May 5th. For more information or questions about purchasing tickets, call 847-579-3810. It’s the first day after winter break at East High. The Jocks, Brainiacs, Thespians and Skater Dudes all find their cliques. Basketball team captain and resident jock, Troy, discovers that the brainy Gabriella, a girl he met singing karaoke on his ski trip, has just enrolled at East High. The couple causes an upheaval when they decide to audition for the high school musical. Although many students resent the threat posed to the “status quo," Troy and Gabriella’s alliance might just open the door for others to shine as well.
