It’s an exciting time! Let us welcome you to come enjoy Chatham Middle School‘s production of Disney’s High School Musical: One Act Edition showing on November 17 and 18 at 7:00 p.m., and November 19 at 2:00 p.m.! This wonderful show will be put on at the CMS auditorium and tickets are priced at $5.00 a person at the door, paid in cash or check. High School Musical is directed by Kristen VanNote, with music direction by Brandon Kulzer, bringing a mix of fun scenes and great songs to have fun with!
VanNote, returning as CMS Drama Club director, wants to say that “this show is truly a showcase of many talents. Not only are these middle school students the performers of this show, they also spent time helping to design and paint many of the set pieces you will see. This is a great show for all ages. I am so impressed with their performance and I can’t wait to share it with the community.“
High School Musical brings new girl brainiac Gabriella Montez and championship-winning jock Troy Bolton together as they discover that they can go against the status quo to express themselves in any way they want, namely, the spring musical.
This production stars the talented Isla Stack as Gabriella, Jordan Surita as Troy, and Skylar Bowen and Andrew Mehleisen as the scheming thespian twins, Sharpay and Ryan Evans. Join them and the other students of East High as they explore what makes them unique!
Kulzer, who along with being High School Musical’s wonderful music director is the MED and CHS orchestra teacher, says, “The kids have put in a lot of time, work, and effort in order to realize ‘High School Musical’ on the CMS stage.”
