I’d say that [the musical] is going absolutely amazing so far. Everyone’s enthusiastic, we all love each other, and we have such a strong group of singers who will put on a show that will most certainly be remembered

— Nick Vasbinder

The cast has been practicing and working hard since January.

Most of the cast consists of students who were in previous musicals, but there are a lot of new faces in this year’s cast.

Most of the lead characters in this year’s musical were only part of the ensemble just last year in “Beauty and the Beast.”

“Drama Club has easily been one of my favorite extracurriculars over the past three years. It has always been an amazing experience, going from nothing to show night and killing it! I’m gonna miss it,” said senior Zack Webster, who is playing one of the lead roles as Jack, “As for being Jack, I’m looking forward to finally getting to perform the show. My favorite memory – hands down – is getting to sing ‘Giants in the Sky’ with an orchestra.”

“I’d say that [the musical] is going absolutely amazing so far. Everyone’s enthusiastic, we all love each other, and we have such a strong group of singers who will put on a show that will most certainly be remembered,” said sophomore Nick Vasbinder, who is playing one of the lead roles as The Baker.

This 1980’s musical contains many plots and characters. In the musical, under the curse of a witch, a baker and his wife are childless. Three days before the rise of a blue moon, they venture into the forest to find the ingredients that will reverse the spell and restore the witch’s beauty: a milk-white cow, hair as yellow as corn, a blood-red cape, and a slipper of gold. During their journey, they meet Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel and Jack, each one on a quest to fulfill a wish.

Unlike last year’s “Beauty and the Beast”, “Into the Woods” is a musical that is not suitable for all ages. Parents should research the ratings on the show to see if it is suitable for their children.

“I think the musical is going great so far, and it has been a blast getting together to do this musical with everyone. I’m looking forward to performing with all of my friends and getting to do what I love on show night,” said Lindsey Walk, who is playing one of the lead roles as Cinderella.

“Everyone has been working so hard the past couple of months and it’s all coming together very well. Everyone ought to come see the show on April 13th and 14th,” said Webster.
