ABOUT THE MUSICAL — It’s the first day after winter break at East High. The Jocks, Brainiacs, Thespians, and Skater Dudes find their cliques, recount their vacations, and look forward to the new year. Basketball team captain and resident jock, Troy, discovers that the brainy Gabriella, a girl he met singing karaoke on his ski trip, has just enrolled at East High. They cause an upheaval when they decide to audition for the high school musical that’s being led by Ms. Darbus. Although many students resent the threat posed to the “status quo,” Troy and Gabriella’s alliance might just open the door for others to shine as well. Disney Channel’s smash hit movie musical comes to life as Troy, Gabriella, and the students of East High deal with issues of first love, friends, and family while balancing their classes and extracurricular activities.

ABOUT THIS SPECIAL PILOT PRODUCTION MUSICAL — DreamWorks’ The Prince of Egypt: The Musical JR explores the unbreakable bond between two brothers, Moses and Ramses, as their lives are dramatically altered by revelations of identity and purpose. Set against the backdrop of ancient Egypt, this emotional journey delves into the heart-wrenching conflict between familial love and justice. As Moses fights for freedom and Ramses clings to tradition, they both struggle with personal transformation, the weight of leadership, and the power of compassion. With unforgettable music by Stephen Schwartz, this inspiring tale of courage and brotherhood reminds us that the greatest battles are often fought within.

ABOUT THE MUSICAL MISS NELSON IS MISSING! (YOUNGER@PART) — Miss Nelson’s class is the worst-behaved in the whole school. Spitballs fly across the room, paper airplanes sail every-which-way, and uncontrollable children send the gentle, long-suffering teacher, Miss Nelson, over the edge. But the students of Room 207 are in for a surprise when Miss Nelson turns up missing and is replaced by Viola Swamp, a scary substitute teacher who assigns homework from hell and wields her ruler like a sword. In desperation, the students set out to find their beloved Miss Nelson with the help of a private eye … but will they ever get her back?

ABOUT THIS SPECIAL JUNIE B. JONES: THE MUSICAL (KIDS) PILOT — Inspiration Stage proudly presents this exclusive pilot production. Junie B. sets off for her first day in first grade, where many changes await: her best friend Lucille has found new best friends and Junie B. makes friends with Herb, the new kid at school. While in Mr. Scary’s class, Junie has trouble reading the blackboard, and might need glasses. Add in a friendly cafeteria lady, an intense kickball tournament, and her “Top-Secret Personal Beeswax Journal” … and first grade has never been more exciting. From Marcy Heisler and Zina Goldrich, the creators of Dear Edwina and Dear Edwina JR, comes Junie B. Jones The Musical KIDS – a delightful adaptation of Barbara Park’s beloved books.
