Into the Woods music rehearsal

Watch the cast of Into the Woods practice their musical parts for the upcoming play.

It's official! Into The Woods is the Berkshire Theater winter musical

We are very excited to announce Into the Woods as Berkshire Theater's winter musical. It is a funny play with lots of twists and turns. The play features many familiar fairy tales and mashes them into a wonderful musical adventure. You will recognize a lot of familiar faces such as Jack and the Beanstalk, Cinderella, Rapunzel, Little Red Riding Hood, and many more. We are now having a lot of music rehearsals because the music in this show is quite complicated. To learn it well, we are front loading music rehearsals with Dr. Wu and Dr. Davis. 
The audition process for this play had a huge turnout from the Berkshire student body. Auditions featured individual monologues and music solos. Then, everyone sang as an ensemble and we worked on individual song.  As we go into break, we are learning lines and songs. Excitement is building in the theater as we work on this challenging play. Keep up with the blog for all the latest updates, info, and progress.

Second Performance!

This Friday, November 1^st, we held our second performance of Plans. The cast and crew couldn’t wait to put out hard work into action for the second night in a row.

Opening night is always slightly nerve-wracking, performing in front of an audience for the first time. However, being the second night, we were able to get all the jitters out of our systems, and put our best feet forward! Friday evenings are the most popular show times, so the crowd is always packed. Knowing this, we were so excited to perform for hundreds students, teachers, parents, and friends.

We felt Plans turned out to be quite a success! Thank you everyone for coming out to support the cast and crew.

Light, Stage, and Cardboard Houses

Light, stage, and cardboard houses?

The opening performance for Plans was last night! As the audience flowed through the doors they were mystified by the actors who were already on stage. The audience got to experience an average day in the life of the three neighbors. The exciting buzz is flowing around campus. From puppets, to pianos, to cat fights Plans has it all. It is sure to stir up a mixture of all emotions happy and sad. All are highly encouraged to come out tonight or tomorrow night and watch the original work of the Berkshire Theatre department. 7:30 show time and doors open at 7:15. Don't be stuck in your normal routine experience something new and come see it!
PS when the lights come on intermission has started!
