In the Middle

If you want to know what really goes on in middle school, join these students as they perform insightful songs highlighting their monologues and scenes. "Doing the Tag" introduces friendships and rivalries, "Hanging in the Hallway" finds a girl longing for the boy of her dreams to notice her, and "I'm Hot/I'm Not" shows us all about popularity. "America" tells the troubles facing a foreign-born student, while "Cambiata" deals with the challenge of the unchanged male voice in chorus class. "Hormonal Blues" finds a boy in the throes of first love with a girl he can't even talk to. Two big school problems, gossip and bullying, each get their own songs as well. Filled with moments from hilarious to heartfelt, this show will reach everyone in the school in some way. Simple to rehearse and stage. (Free audio file song is "In the Middle.")
