    ALTER CASTLE PLAYERS PROUDLY PRESENT March 2021 To my incredible seniors…. ALTER CASTLE PLAYERS You will be missed beyond belief! Thanks for four amazing years of joy, PROUDLY PRESENT talent and love!!! CJ Delgado Brigid McKenna Michael Ferguson Renee Palmer Abby Foppe Aidan Plate Christine Gulas Caitlyn Porter Sophia Imundo Caroline Rentz Sam Johnson Julia Ruffolo Theresa Junker Maddie Rupper Peyton Kuntz Lauren Shenk Marie Lunne Taylor Thornburg Isabella Magnusen Annabel Wildermuth Love you all! Mrs. Sears March 2021 Tim Rice Alter Castle Players Proudly Present Tim Rice has worked in music, theatre and films since 1965 when he met Andrew Lloyd Webber, a fellow struggling songwriter. Rather than pursue Tim’s ambitions to write rock or pop songs they turned their attention to Andrew’s obsession—musical theatre. Their first collaboration (lyrics by Tim, music by Andrew) was an unsuccessful show based on the life of Dr. Barnardo, the Victorian philanthropist, The Likes Of Us. Their next three works together JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING were much more successful—Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Jesus Christ Superstar and Evita. Tim has since worked with other distinguished popular composers such as Elton John (The Lion King, TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT Aida), Alan Menken (Aladdin, King David, Beauty and the Beast), Bjorn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson (Chess) and most recently, Stuart Brayson (From Here To Eternity). Lyrics by Tim Rice, Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber A new production of From Here To Eternity made its début at the Finger Lakes Musical Theatre, New York, in June 2016, and played in the Fall of 2017 at the Ogunquit Playhouse in Maine.

    School of Rock: The Musical Character List and Synopsis Synopsis: Rock got no reason, rock got no rhyme…You better get me to school on time! School of ​ ​ Rock is a two-hour, two-act musical (plus intermission), based on the hit movie. The tuner follows ​ Dewey Finn, a failed, wannabe rock star who decides to earn an extra bit of cash by posing as a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school. There he turns a class of straight–A pupils into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band. But can he get them to the Battle of the Bands without their parents and the school’s headmistress finding out? The Adults ● Dewey Finn (Plays Guitar and Sings Rock Tenor): The protagonist, Dewey is a struggling ​ rockstar who is kicked out of his band, No Vacancy, at the beginning of the show. In need of ​ ​ money, he impersonates Ned Schneebly and gets a substitute teacher job at the Horace Green School, where he founds the band School of Rock with the students, who are musical ​ ​ prodigies. Dewey is usually wild, desperate, naive, dull-witted, and somewhat more childish than his students. ● Rosalie Mullins (Mezzo Soprano): Rosalie is the principal of Horace Green, and is very ​ uptight and traditional at school. However, she feels an intense amount of pressure from work, which is what causes her to be so high strung. She has a secret love of rock and roll music, and longs to be as carefree as she once was. ● Ned Schneebly (Baratone): Dewey's longtime friend, former bandmate, and current ​ roommate.
