KSU Trumbull Summer Stock Presents SCHOOLHOUSE ROCK, LIVE!
by Eric Kildow via NEohioPAL 19 Jul '16

19 Jul '16

Kent State University at Trumbull Summer Stock is pleased to announce production of Schoolhouse Rock, Live! As their summer musical. Young people get ready for learning in a fun-filled atmosphere, and older folks get ready for a trip down memory lane! Directed by Eric S. Kildow with Music Direction by Matt White. A pop culture phenomenon comes to the musical stage in Schoolhouse Rock Live! The Emmy Award-winning 1970's Saturday morning cartoon series that taught history, grammar, math, and more through clever, tuneful songs is not only making a small-screen comeback, it's lighting up stages everywhere -- from school multi-purpose rooms to university and regional theatres all around the country. Schoolhouse Rock Live! follows Tom, a nerve-wracked school teacher who 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." Show dates are July 15-16, 22-23, 29-30 at 8pm, July 17, 24 & 31st at 3pm. Tickets can be had by calling the box office at 330-675-8887 or emailing trumbullboxoffice(a)kent.edu. Tickets are $15 for Adults, $12 for Students and Seniors, $10 for Children under 12, and FREE for KSU Students enrolled in Summer semester. -- *Eric S.
