The Grossmont College Theatre Arts Department announces its summer 2024 musical revue, From Stage to Screen (And Back Again). This production, directed and choreographed by Melissa Glasgow with musical direction by Patrick Marion, will be performed in the Performing and Visual Arts Center July 24-27.
Enjoy a performance of songs from your favorite musicals of stage and screen. Travel through history to explore the countless musicals that have entertained audiences everywhere, from Broadway theaters to living room TVs. You’ll hear songs from stage musicals and movie musicals, movies turned into stage musicals, and movie musicals turned into stage musicals turned back into movie musicals. A revue that captures the nostalgia of MGM Technicolor and celebrates the innovations that keep musicals alive today.
“Most of us have an experience with a musical that we remember,” Glasgow said. “Whether it was seeing the opening night of Hamilton on Broadway or watching Singin’ in the Rain on the couch with your grandparents, musicals show up in our lives in a variety of ways. From Stage to Screen (And Back Again) is a revue that highlights this variety. It has been a joy to explore iconic scores that have appeared both on Broadway stages and at Hollywood Premieres. Through this show, we celebrate the creativity of the past while also pondering what innovations musical theatre has yet to offer.”
The cast of singers and dancers includes Lizzie Cisneros, Maddy Corvino, Cece Cuevas, Em Danque, Amie Fuhr, William Joseph, Kaylee Kloberdanz, Colby Koo, Izabella Newman, Laila Nunn, Joe Provo, Jordan Shepard, Birdy Wilbon, Lina Zavala, and Ryan Zook.
