Columbinus
UW Fox Valley Drama Club invites you to their 2011-2012 production Columbinus. The docu-drama powerfully examines the pressures felt by high schoolers, and the events surrounding the 1999 Columbine School Shootings. It will be directed by current sophomore Alex Frantz. The play truthfully depicts alienation, hostility, bullying, and social pressure that frequently occur in high schools across America. “An unnerving study in adolescent angst, Columbinus relentlessly paints a bold picture that bears witnessing … it merges the facts of the Columbine massacre with a harrowing impression of what life is like in high schools today”. — Star-Ledger

The Car
By Carol Wright Krause
The Car is about the Banners, a picture perfect postcard of a 1950s American family, with an all-American son, a doting mother and an honest car salesman of a father, who does everything by the book and has just recently, purchased the car—a 1954 Hudson Hornet. But when their son suddenly joins the military, only to return with a Japanese wife the family’s world is suddenly turned upside-down. Things may not be as picture perfect as they seem.
“But through the bumps and potholes, Krause’s script can get surprisingly and satisfyingly dark, and the intensity of the actors on stage make “The Car” an entertaining and engaging ride.” - Jordan Scrivner, RED Magazine

Cinderella
A little red truck pulls into our town with everything it takes to mount a full-scale musical production . . . except the cast. That’s where the children of our community come.
By Saturday, they’re gained character- the kind that really counts.
The Missoula Children's Theatre provides a week-long residency starring 50-60 of our local students in a full-scale musical. MCT has been touring for more than 30 years. Annually, MCT visits nearly 1,200 communities in all 50 states, 4 Canadian Provinces and overseas. Their mission is the development of lifeskills in children through participation in the performing arts. Creativity, social skills, goal achievement, communication skills and self-esteem are all characteristics that are attained through participation in this unique and educational project. This show will be performed in Perry Hall.

Dream Role
We asked the performers of the Fox Valley: “What roles have you always dreamed of performing?” Their answers provided us with 90 minutes of show stopping songs to feature together in one show. Do not miss your opportunity to be one of the few people who get to experience this production created exclusively for UWFox! The area’s best talent will come together to bring the house down with their favorite songs from Broadway’s biggest hits. As a special gift see a sneak peek from our upcoming production of HAIRSPRAY!

Hairspray
Book by Mark O'Donnell and Thomas Meehan
Music and Lyrics by Marc Shaiman
Lyrics by Scott Wittman
HAIRSPRAY delights audiences by sweeping them away to 1960's Baltimore, where the 50's are out -- and change is in the air. Loveable plus-size heroine, Tracy Turnblad, has a passion for dancing, and wins a spot on the local TV dance program, "The Corny Collins Show." Overnight she finds herself transformed from outsider to teen celebrity. Can a larger-than-life adolescent manage to vanquish the program's reigning princess, integrate the television show, and find true love (singing and dancing all the while, of course!) without mussing her hair?
