Summer is off and running.  We are already in rehearsals for Noble Fool Youth Ensemble's summer show: HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 2.  A cast of 48 SUPERBLY talented elementary, junior andhigh school students will be taking stage at Pheasant Run Resort on July 18.  We have had three rehearsals and they are "working it out!"  Every Day these young performers teach me something of value - EVERY DAY!  Don't miss this high-energy, action packed on stage musical performed by students and directed by professionals. 

For the third time since October I am involved with another production of GODSPELL.  This time I am back in Elgin, with Elgin Community College's Musical Theatre program.  I am working with some new and familiar faces.  Another outstanding cast for a fun-filled night of this timeless classic.

Later this month, I will be teaching a Singing TechniqueSummer Camp focusing on the songs of INTO THE WOODS with students ages 9-12 y.o.  I will take the students through Auditions, Casting, Learning the music and blocking, and performing a family-friendly showcase all with only 13 hours of work.  This will be a fun week; June 29 - July 3.

On May 18 my piano and voice studio had a Spring Recital at the St. Charles Public Library.  It was a wonderful night showcasing and highlighting many of my students.  Another is being planned for the Fall.

Wishing you a musical summer!
