    Franken i MORE THAN JUST STEPS: A BEHIND THE SCENES ACCOUNT OF CHOREOGRAPHING THEATRE TCU'S MAINSTAGE MUSICAL “SISTER ACT!” By Alli Franken Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Departmental Honors in the Department of Theatre at Texas Christian University Fort Worth, TX May 4, 2020 Franken ii MORE THAN JUST STEPS: A BEHIND THE SCENES ACCOUNT OF CHOREOGRAPHING THEATRE TCU'S MAINSTAGE MUSICAL SISTER ACT! Project Approved: Supervising Professor: Jennifer Engler, MFA Department of Theatre Penny Maas, MFA Department of Theatre Sarah Newton, MFA Department of Dance Franken iii ABSTRACT This project analyzes the creative process of choreographing a musical; specifically, my journey within my debut as the sole choreographer of Sister Act! with Theatre TCU. I will describe my journey to becoming a choreographer, challenges and surprises I faced, problem solving tactics I used, and an analysis of the final outcome. I’ll share details from the casting process, rehearsals, production meetings, choreography sessions, and actual performances. Through this journey, I have learned more about myself and how to create and communicate artistic vision, as well as methods to use choreography as a tool to enhance storytelling. The account being shared must always be the priority for storytellers. Collaboration is key, and having the opportunity to work with the professional artists widened my perspective to the possibilities for creative expression and strategies to generating meaningful works of high quality entertainment.

Experience the ultimate feel-good musical of love, family and friendship at the Benedum Center July 28 – August 6 Pittsburgh, PA ∙ July 19, 2017 – Over 54 million people around the world have fallen in love with MAMMA MIA! since its Broadway debut in 2001, after which it ran for a staggering 5,758 performances. Now, Pittsburgh CLO will produce this international sensation for the first time, July 28 - August 6 at the Benedum Center. Tickets are now available by phone at 412-456-6666, online at pittsburghCLO.org or by visiting the Box Office at Theater Square. On the eve of her wedding, a daughter's quest to discover the identity of her father brings three men back to the island they last visited 20 years ago.

The possible papas to her Sophie are MATT BOGART as Sam (Broadway’s Jersey Boys, Aida and Miss Saigon), CHRISTIAN WHELAN as Bill (National Tours of Flashdance, Mamma Mia! and Aida) and RICK NEGRON (Broadway’s The Mystery of Edwin Drood, Man of La Mancha, The Goodbye Girl) as Harry. There’s certainly no question who the Mom is…Donna – played by Pittsburgh CLO newcomer SALLY ANN TRIPLETT, who last appeared on Broadway in Finding Neverland, The Last Ship and Carrie.
