Description:

All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players.  Shakespeare's famous words from As You Like It set the stage for this high energy, entertaining production. Musically, we span the gamut of genres with an original score influenced by the sounds of Hamilton, The Greatest Showman, Snarky Puppy, and even some John Williams flavors. This modern hybrid approach of style-blending has proven to be a strong device for both the education of the students as well as the entertainment for the audience.

Visually, we imagine the setting of the show inside a theater, which can be shown through large, red curtains that can be used for entrances and exits.  As the show develops, the sets and props flip from a view of the stage from the audience perspective to a behind the scenes backstage look. The use of mini stages that create focus could be helpful to provide a wide variety of featured moments all around the floor!   As the show's story arch culminates, the emotional gravity of the curtains closing parallels the end of season journey. For the seniors and their families, this can be a wonderful way to say goodbye and reflect on their time with the ensemble.

This show was originally commissioned for Chino Hills HS for the fall of 2022 and was released for the 2024 indoor season as a custom version adapted for indoor percussion.
