JUNE 2013
Wednesday - Sunday,
June 19-23
7:00PM
Schoolhouse Rock LIVE!
Directed by John Lennox
Music Director: John Dale Smith; Choreographer: Karyn Perry
Originally Adapted and Produced for the Stage by Theatre BAM, From the Series Created by George Newall and Tom Yohe, Based on an Idea by David McCall, Book by Scott Ferguson, George Keating and Kyle Hall, Music and Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens, Bob Dorough, Dave Frishberg, Kathy Mandry, George Newall and Tom Yohe

Tom, a nerve-wracked school teacher, is nervous about his first day of teaching.  He tries to relax by watching TV when various characters representing facets of his personality emerge from the set and show him how to win his students over with imagination and music, through such songs as "Just A Bill," "Lolly, Lolly, Lolly," and "Conjunction Junction."  The Emmy Award-winning 1970s Saturday morning cartoon series that taught history, grammar, math, and more through clever, tuneful songs is a pop cultural phenomenon and lighting up stages everywhere!

The Odyssey: A Play by Mary Zimmerman
Directed by Deborah Keller
This dramatic adaptation of Homer's myth begins with a modern young woman who is struggling to understand Robert Fitzgerald's translation of The Odyssey.  A classical muse appears, and the young woman becomes the goddess Athena--a tireless advocate for Odysseus in his struggle to get home.  With her trademark irreverent and witty twist on classic works, Zimmerman brings to life the story of Odysseus's ten-year journey, depicting his encounters with characters such as Circe, the Cyclops, Poseidon, Calypso, the Sirens, and others.  Presented by LCC's 2nd Semester Theatre Studio class.
