Pictured above is the cast of '13' - a coming-of-age musical that will be performed at Fallbrook High School's Bob Burton Center for the Performing Arts March 17 through 19.
FALLBROOK – The Fallbrook High School Drama Club is presenting the only Broadway musical in history made up entirely of teenagers in three performances March 17 through 19.
The production "13" will be under the organization of Fallbrook High School music director Heather Smith, who currently oversees all three of the high school's choirs. Award-winning actress Amanda Frawley will be the guest artistic director, bringing years of professional performance to the Bob Burton stage.
Audiences will be able to relive the trials and tribulations of school and life as a 13-year-old. They will watch the growing pains of tweens and teens through friendships, clicks, cheerleaders, a new school, divorce, and social circles. Well-seasoned performers Austin Arena and Madison Britton will play the lead male and female roles of Evan and Patrice. Look for stage stars Haley Olsen as Lucy, Kaitlin Speegle as Kendra, Andrew Faulk as Archie, and Shannon Gaines-Emory as Brett Sampson.
"Most of these students are also in the vocal choirs so the musical numbers will be great," said Heather Smith. "Amanda's experience on the stage and as choreographer has created a great learning environment for the kids as well as taking the Drama Club's performance level to new heights. This is going to be a great production."
The cast of '13' includes students from freshmen through seniors at the high school. Students have been rehearsing after school for several months and are excited to be staging this coming-of-age comedic musical.
The production features an unforgettable rock score from Tony Award-winning composer Jason Robert Brown (Parade, The Last Five Years, Bridges Of Madison County).
"13" will be performed live three nights at the Bob Burton Performing Arts Center. Opening night is Thursday, March 17, followed by Friday, March 18, and Saturday, March 19. All shows start at 7 p.m. and all tickets are general admission.
Tickets ($15/each) are being sold in advance by students and can also be purchased at the box office before the show time each evening.
