Registration Reminder:
We have some exciting news to share about our upcoming Senior Academy production.
After thoughtful planning and consideration, we will be shifting our spring show from High School Musical to the 2012 Broadway revival of Godspell. This change allows us to bring a production that is energetic, contemporary, ensemble-driven, and full of heart.
About the show:
The 2012 revival of Godspell reimagines the classic musical with a modern sound, updated orchestrations, and a vibrant, collaborative style of storytelling. It is a show built on creativity, individuality, and community. Every performer has the chance to shine. With its mix of pop, rock, and folk-inspired music, the score feels fresh and exciting. The structure of the show encourages bold character choices, improvisation, and strong ensemble work.
​
This production will give performers the opportunity to develop strong ensemble skills, explore character creation and storytelling, perform high-energy, contemporary musical numbers and be part of a joyful, uplifting theatrical experience.
​
We truly believe this change will create a more dynamic and rewarding experience for everyone involved, both onstage and behind the scenes. Godspell is a show that celebrates creativity, connection, and the power of a group coming together to tell a story.
