Cultural Arts Summer Youth Production Directed by: Meredith Vandre 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. $180 (N/R $200) $20 Discount - Returning Cast Member from Singin’ in The Rain Jr. $20 Sibling Discount Auditions June 5 and 7: 5:00-6:00 pm | 6:00-7:00pm | 7:00-8:00pm If necessary, callbacks will be June 9 from 10:00 am - 12:00 pm.
