"School House Rock Live" Starts on Friday!

You see those adorable young people in the photo above?

That talented bunch is hard at work putting the finishing touches on the musical School House Rock Live, which starts Friday at the Renaissance Theatre (the old Huntington High School).

It's a great show, and this talented group of All-Stars from schools all over the area is going to put on a great performance (and I've listened in to the group in rehearsal - they sound amazing)!

Here's the information about the show:

First Stage Theatre Company celebrates its 21st Birthday and kicks off a new season this weekend at the Renaissance Art Center!

Performances will be Friday and Saturday - September 23, 24, 30 and October 1 at 8:00 p.m., and Sunday - September 25 and October 2 at 2:00 p.m.

The musical is based on the classic animated series originally presented on ABC-TV in the ‘70s and ‘80s. Loaded with memorable songs, the show teaches about history, grammar, math, science and government.

Directed by Amy Browning and featuring a cast of dozens of the Tri-State's most talented kids, School House Rock Live is a blast for all ages!

First Stage presented this show 10 years ago, and it's one of my all-time favorites. It's loaded with great songs - and they're educational, too!

To celebrate the group's 21st birthday this month, they're also offering a special discount to First Stage veterans - it's called the “SHOW SHIRT” DISCOUNT! You can get $2.00 off individual admission to School House Rock Live if you arrive wearing a promotional T-shirt from ANY First Stage (or Musical Arts Guild Children's Theatre) production from 1990-2011.

Don't miss it!
