He talked about this fabulous one-woman musical. I bought the musical selections and sang “Tell Me on a Sunday” through the teenage tears of heartbreak. It got me through. We chose to produce Song and Dance in celebration of the new School of the Arts (or SOTA) at Central Gwinnett High School. We want these students to see themselves on stage. India Tyree is stupendous. Hard Stop. Noah Johnson is equally thrilling (quiet by nature but fierce on cello.) Just as exciting is the incredible group of dancers we assembled. Hiring the right creative team is critical. Creative teams are not only our performers, but our directors, our choreographers, and our designers.
