After a two-year hiatus, Tioga Central High School Drama Club will perform before a live audience once again on Jan. 28 and 29. This year\u2019s production of Rodgers and Hammerstein\u2019s \u201cCinderella\u201d (the 2013 Broadway version) is sure to entertain and inspire.  <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are thrilled to bring live theater back to the stage this year,\u201d said Alex MacDonald, the show\u2019s director, adding, \u201cOur last show was in January of 2020, just before everything shut down. We are really excited to share our work with an in-person audience.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Broadway version of Cinderella has a fresh take on the well-known characters of the play, and Tioga\u2019s students are taking on the challenge with great success. Over half of the cast and crew have never performed a musical before, as their Junior High shows were canceled.  <\/span><\/p>\n

MacDonald commented, \u201cIn many ways we started this production with a clean slate. It\u2019s this perfect mix of wide-eyed enthusiasm and a sense of adventure as the students learn the craft of rehearsing a musical; from acting, singing and choreography, to singing with a live pit orchestra all for the first time.\u201d<\/p>\n

The orchestra has been reduced in size from the original instruments to a pianist, two wind players and a string player (all Tioga Faculty) to accommodate the spacing of the auditorium.  <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSpace has always been a concern, and this year it\u2019s an even bigger consideration,\u201d MacDonald added. <\/p>\n

It is no surprise that the pandemic is on the mind of the production staff. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe have had to plan carefully, so that we can rehearse and perform while keeping in line with state and local guidelines,\u201d stated MacDonald, adding, \u201cI am confident we have a production that will be both high-quality and safe for the audience and, most importantly, our students.\u201d<\/p>\n

MacDonald concluded, \u201cThe show has two musical numbers back to back. First, \u2018Impossible,\u2019 followed by \u2018It\u2019s Possible.\u2019 That\u2019s how we approached every obstacle; first it\u2019s impossible, then we do what we can to make it possible. COVID stopped us once, but it won\u2019t stop us again.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cinderella will run Friday, Jan. 28 at 7 p.m. and again on Saturday, Jan. 29 at 4 p.m. Tickets will be sold at the door and are available at a cost of $7 for adults, $5 for students and seniors, and children under five are free. <\/span><\/p>\n
