In 1983, the authors provided, "in spunky detail" (Booklist), a step-by-step guide to producing musicals with middle school students that was "infused with common sense and high en ergy" (VOYA). Then in 1998 they brought their increased experience and knowledge to a completely revised and fully updated version of their "highly recommended" (Library Journal) work. The present book is a reprint of that edition. Voice, music, choreography, costumes, make-up, scenery, lighting, props, sound effects, backstage management—all phases of producing a major musical play with children as actors and stage crew are covered here, as well as the program, souvenirs, and photographs, not to mention handling pre-show jitters and throwing the after-the-show party. The techniques are tailored to children's abilities and needs (e.g., what to do with the "love scene"). Show more
