Seussical Jr
Seussical Jr. was a colorful, musically entertaining and professionally thought out show. The AMS Theatre Department held four performances of this show in February. The Turek’s stated that their company (cast and crew) was just stellar, and that they made it such an enjoyable process from beginning to end. They said that one of their favorite moments was watching the top of the show on opening night, and just being blown away by the kids and their professionalism as they ran the show on their own having just moved into the high school space the week before. They were rockstars and we miss seeing that group of kiddos every day!”
The Tech Theatre classes at AMS helped build and paint all of the set pieces, so they got to talk through a lot of the process and troubleshoot issues to find solutions. In regard to the set design, they work collaboratively on set designs. For this production, they really liked the idea of oversized books, like the characters were coming out and greeting the Boy character, who later enters the story as Jojo.

When asked what their goals are for the AMS Theatre Department for next year.
Well, year one went about as well as we could have hoped for! We’re not exactly sure what shows we’ll be doing next year yet (although we have some ideas), but we’re really pumped to keep building with the amazing kids that we have here in Argyle ISD.
