CRHS Music Department PRESS RELEASE
The CRHS Music Department is happy to announce that this year’s school musical is the classic 1927 Broadway hit “Good News”.
The story is set in the Roaring Twenties at Tait College, where football star Tom Marlowe falls in love with studious Connie Lane, who is tutoring him so that he can pass astronomy and be eligible to play in the big game. You get it; lots of corn and good laughs.
Good News spawned two films and many local and Broadway revivals. The score features musical favorites such as “Keep Your Sunny Side Up”, “Button Up Your Overcoat“, “You’re the Cream in My Coffee,” “Together,” and “Life Is Just a Bowl of Cherries.” It proved to be DeSylva, Brown, and Ray Henderson’s biggest hit musical, and we’re hoping that you will be as excited about attending one of the performances as we are. Chorus teacher Ms. Lisa Larsen has already begun rehearsals, and Instrumental Music Teacher Mr. Dean Coutsouridis will soon be working with the pit band to rehearse the instrumental accompaniment.
The performance dates are April 7-9, and more information about the show and tickets will be released as we get closer to April.
Until the curtain rises, Keep Your Sunny Side Up!
