New Century Charter School Drama department is working hard to present the broadway hit "Honk!" to our audiences on March 6 - 9, 2008. It is our annual theatre performance and we have over 40 kids involved in the production.
"Honk!" is the story of the Ugly Duckling. Written by George Stiles and Anthony Drewe (dubbed “The brightest hopes for the future of the British musical” by The London Daily Telegraph), “Honk!” is the story of Ugly, whose odd, gawky looks instantly incite prejudice from his family and neighbors. Separated from the farm and pursued by a hungry Cat, Ugly must find his way home. Along his rollicking and harrowing journey he not only discovers his true beauty and glorious destiny, but also finds love and acceptance in all its forms.
Witty and hilarious, but also deeply moving, “Honk!” will delight our audience to equal amounts of laughter and tears. Its charm, humor and message of tolerance is perfect for a family audience… and every audience.
Veteran Producers Sheila Hendricks and Terry Kempfert join together to both produce and direct the show this year. Dede Hard is our singing coach, and Nancy Massman our choreographer. Students are busy rehearsing lines and songs, building the stage and props and gathering costumes. Production dates are March 6, 7, and 8 at 7:00 PM and March 9 at 4:00 PM.
Tickets are $6 for adults and $4 for students and will be available at the school and at Cash Wise starting February 11th.
