Question: Any Ideas for a School Musical!?
My high school has a musical every year and I was just wondering if you guys have some good ideas about what to do next year!.
We don't want to repeat so the past couple of years we have done:
Annie- Into the Woods- Greece- Pirates of Penzance- The Wizard of Oz
Right now we're thinking maybe Wicked (we can't do Hairspray)Www@QuestionHome@Com
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Spin!. Our school did that one recently!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Is Wicked even licensable!?
Anyway, I reccomend Guys and Dolls!. Or Fiddler on the Roof!. Or Pajama Game!. That one's fantastic!. How about Seussical!? Maybe Oklahoma!.!.!.!.!.!. oh, Beauty and the Beast is always fun!. Or Little Shop of Horrors!. Or Les Miserables (School Edition, maybe!?) if you're ambitious and have lots of talented guys!.
Sorry!. Shutting up!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
I agree with everyone who says that High School Musical should not be done, it's not a music, for Pete's sake!
Have you tried a melodrama!?
Here are some that I suggest~
Our Town,
On The Razzle,
Hello Dolly!
Oliver!
Spin (very small cast),
Bonne Chance, break a legWww@QuestionHome@Com
Guys and Dolls is brilliant - great characters, great songs; if you have enough strong guys, Jesus Christ Superstar (although Judas is a huge ask for a high schooler); Anything Goes; Once Upon a Mattress (wonderful show for high schools)!. You won't get the rights for Wicked!. A good place to look for shows is at www!.mtishows!.com or www!.tams-witmark!.com!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
When I was in high school, they did a musical, "School House Rock"!. It was completely appropriate and the best musical/play since the school has been opened!. It's been 6 years, and they still haven't been able to top it!. I suggest "School House Rock" 100%!!!!!!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com
Rate now my schools in the proses of preforming Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream coat { its all singing but its really good}!. I really like Oliver, Peter Pan, King and I, Oklahoma, James and the Giant Peach, and The Beauty and the Beast!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
