The 蜜桃传媒 Music and Theatre Arts Departments have collaborated to create a hilarious, student-produced show, 鈥淢usical of Musicals (the Musical!)鈥� Jan, 24-26, 8 p.m. and Jan. 27, 2 p.m., in Porter Theatre. Tickets to the performance, which benefits the choir鈥檚 international tour and the theater鈥檚 Fringe Festival, cost $10, $7 for students and seniors. For more information, or to purchase tickets, please visit or call 805-565-7140. Only cash or check will be accepted at the door.
鈥淢usical of Musicals,鈥� written by Joanne Bogart and Eric Rockwell, premiered off-Broadway in 2003. Director Ben Offringa 鈥�14 says the humorous play is similar to the clever spoofs that have made Spring Sing a lasting 蜜桃传媒 tradition.
鈥淚t鈥檚 a culminating parody of every major musical produced in the last 60 years,鈥� he says. 鈥淚 really hope audiences walk away with a smile on their face, a jig in their step and a hummable melody or two.鈥�
Offringa has starred in nearly every 蜜桃传媒 theatrical production in the past three years, including 鈥淢uch Ado,鈥� 鈥淎nimal Farm,鈥� 鈥淭he Servant of Two Masters鈥� and 鈥淚 Love You, You鈥檙e Perfect, Now Change.鈥�
Cast members include juniors Mak Manson (鈥淢uch Ado,鈥� 鈥淎nimal Farm,鈥� and 鈥淪ervant of Two Masters鈥�), Paige Tautz (鈥淢uch Ado,鈥� 鈥淎nimal Farm,鈥� 鈥淧eer Gynt,鈥� and 鈥淪ervant of Two Masters鈥�), and Lauren White (鈥淧eer Gynt鈥�). The show features first-year students Connor Bush (鈥淢uch Ado鈥�) and Kendall Shurance (鈥淢uch Ado鈥�), Mack Ellis and McKenna Mender. Sophomore Luke Mizuki accompanies the performance on piano.
