About Musical Theatre Guild
The Musical Theatre Guild is a non-profit company with a large membership of professionals who are committed to keeping this American art form alive by performing staged, concert versions of wonderful, but almost-forgotten musicals with live accompaniment. Since its inception in 1995, the Guild has produced over fifty such concerts. The artists in these productions are professionals who have been trained in many performing arts skills. Physical and vocal characterization, singing, dancing, projection, diction, improvisation, and script analysis are just a few of them. Collectively, they become a singing quartet representing four major singing ranges: Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Baritone. Individually, they have appeared in many other plays and musicals.
Musical Theatre Guild offers two different performances:
Revolution!
Age level: All ages
This performance brings American history to musical life using examples from vibrant musical theatre. Students will witness John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton crafting the birth of a nation (1776 and Hamilton), the divide in rural Virginia during America’s Civil War (Shenandoah), Emma Goldman rallying for human rights and Henry Ford’s creation of the assembly line (Ragtime), the turn of the century newsboys of New York City waging a labor war (Newsies) and the social revolutions of the 1960s (Hair).
From the Page to the Stage
Age level: Grades K-5
This performance is a celebration of the magic that occurs when an inspired work of literature is taken down from the shelf, receives a make-over from playwrights, lyricists, and composers, then emerges on stage in a live performance, totally reinvented as a new work of Musical Theatre. The five uniquely engaging shows featured in this revue are Man of La Mancha based on Miguel de Cervantes' Don Quixote; Big River from Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn; You're a Good Man Charlie Brown based on the iconic "Peanuts" comic strips by Charles M. Schultz; Seussical, based on various books by Dr. Seuss; and the satirical "prequel" to Frank Baum's Oz books, Wicked based on Gregory Maguire's book of the same name. A wonderfully versatile company of four singing actors magically inhabit multiple roles, performing songs in many musical styles. A feast for the imagination, From the Page to the Stage will surely inspire both young and old to take another look at great literature!
