The Addams Family Musical: School Edition

by: Lisa Dettmann-Webb

THE ADDAMS FAMILY, a comical feast that embraces the wackiness in every family, features an original story and it’s every father’s nightmare: Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family – a man her parents have never met. And if that wasn’t upsetting enough, Wednesday confides in her father and begs him not to tell her mother. Now, Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before – keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia. Everything will change for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s “normal” boyfriend and his parents.

Mean Girls: High School Version - The Musical

by: Lisa Dettmann-Webb

Cady Heron may have grown up on an African savanna, but nothing prepared her for the wild and vicious ways of her strange new home: suburban Illinois. How will this naïve newbie rise to the top of the popularity pecking order? By taking on The Plastics, a trio of lionized frenemies led by the charming but ruthless Regina George. But when Cady and her friends devise a "Revenge Party" to end Regina’s reign, she learns the hard way that you can’t cross a Queen Bee without getting stung. Adapted from Fey's hit 2004 film, Mean Girls was nominated for a staggering 12 Tony Awards. This queen-bee took Broadway by storm and has joined the musical in-crowd. This production is a High School Version, and the EAHS Theater production team has adopted all of the approved edits, but the show is RATED PG-13. It is most appropriate for high school age and above due to mature content and themes relating to high school social issues.

Elf the Musical Image

Elf the Musical

by: Lisa Dettmann-Webb

Buddy, a young orphan, mistakenly crawls into Santa's bag of gifts and is transported to the North Pole. The would-be elf is raised, unaware that he is actually a human until his enormous size and poor toy-making abilities cause him to face the truth. With Santa's permission, Buddy embarks on a journey to New York City to find his birth father and discover his true identity. Faced with the harsh realities that his father is on the naughty list and his half-brother doesn't even believe in Santa, Buddy is determined to win over his new family and help New York remember the true meaning of Christmas. This modern-day holiday classic is sure to make everyone embrace their inner elf. After all, the best way to spread Christmas Cheer is singing loud for all to hear. * This Broadway musical is based on the PG-rated film and includes similar content. If you think the movie is inappropriate for your child, the musical is likely inappropriate, as well. This show contains mild adult language and does introduce disbelief in Santa. Parental review: "The musical is suitable for all ages, but may be best enjoyed by those eight years and older."

Legacy Arch Plaque Fundraiser Image

Legacy Arch Plaque Fundraiser

by: Katherine Hoffman

Thanks to a generous alumni donor, a new archway will be installed in August of 2023 at the player’s entrance of the EAHS Football Stadium and JoAnn Schaffer Track. The archway will honor EASD Coaches Dean Wilson and Paul Yanke for their contributions to education and athletics. Yanke led the Elks for 26 years as head football coach as well as an assistant coach of wrestling, track, and basketball. On the football field Yanke led teams to three conference championships and numerous playoff appearances. Wilson was a football coach for 26 years with 15 of those years as head coach. Wilson’s teams were conference champs seven times and playoff qualifiers 12 times. Wilson also coached wrestling, basketball, and baseball in different capacities while founding and running the City of Elkhorn Recreation Department for 23 years. To celebrate their legacy, the Elkhorn Area School District Recognition Committee is raising funds to install commemorative plaques for the new archway. These plaques will serve as a tribute to Coach Wilson and Coach Yanke and their many contributions to our students and community. However, we cannot do this without your help. Please consider helping us meet our fundraising goal of $2,500 to purchase and install these plaques. Your donation, no matter how small, will go a long way in ensuring that we can install these plaques and celebrate the legacy of our alumni for generations to come. Any excess funds raised will support future recognitions. Thank you for your support!

Footloose: The Musical

by: Lisa Dettmann-Webb

When Ren and his mother move from Chicago to a small farming town, he is prepared for the inevitable adjustment period at his new high school. But he’s not prepared for the rigorous local edicts, including a ban on dancing instituted by the local preacher, who is determined to exercise control over the town’s youth. When the reverend’s rebellious daughter sets her sights on Ren, her roughneck boyfriend tries to sabotage Ren’s reputation, with many of the locals eager to believe the worst about the new kid. The heartfelt story that emerges pins a father longing for the son he lost against a young man aching for the father who walked out on him. To the rockin’ rhythm of its Oscar and Tony-nominated Top 40 score, augmented with dynamic new songs, Footloose celebrates the wisdom of listening to young people while guiding them with a warm heart and open mind. Join the EAHS Theater Department in celebrating the 25th Anniversary of this great, musical production. Ren, Ariel, and the town of Bomont will "cut loose" on the EAHS stage on Saturday, April 22nd at 7:00 P.M. and Sunday, April 23rd at 1:00 P.M. Don't miss this fun and heartwarming production.

Erica Reddy Family Collection

by: Jason Tadlock

Erica was an incredible example of courage as she battled several rounds of cancer over the years. I’ve never seen an employee with such grit and a desire to work and contribute. Even while undergoing exhausting treatments that would force most to stay home, she showed up and kept battling. Her family shared that “she fought the good fight and has passed onto her eternal glory.” Erica did all this while being a devoted single mother to her middle school-aged son. With the family's permission, we have set up a collection to benefit her son and assist with his ongoing support.

EAHS Fall Musical: Catch Me If You Can

by: Lisa Dettmann-Webb

Based on the hit film and the incredible true story, Catch Me If You Can is the high-flying musical comedy about chasing your dreams and not getting caught. Nominated for four Tony awards, including Best Musical, this delightfully entertaining show was created by a Tony Award-winning "dream team," with a book by Terrence McNally (The Full Monty, Ragtime) and a swinging score by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman (Hairspray). Seeking fame and fortune, precocious teenager, Frank Abignale, Jr., runs away from home to begin an unforgettable adventure. With nothing more than his boyish charm, a big imagination and millions of dollars in forged checks, Frank successfully poses as a pilot, a doctor and a lawyer – living the high life and winning the girl of his dreams. When Frank's lies catch the attention of FBI agent, Carl Hanratty, though, Carl pursues Frank across the country to make him pay for his crimes.
