Clifton Middle School Presents 'Fame Jr'

Clifton Middle School students will perform the play, Fame Jr., on the weekends of April 16, 17, and 18, 23 at 7 p.m., and on April 24, 25 at 5 p.m. at the Clifton Middle School Theater, 226 S. Ivy Ave. General Admission $10;  Monrovia students with ASB card, $5. Tickets available at www.onemusicstand.com/famejr beginning March 1, or at the door.

The play, based on a hit motion picture turned long-running television series, takes place at New York's celebrated High School for the Performing Arts in the 1980s and follows the bittersweet but inspiring story of a diverse group of students as they commit to four years of grueling artistic and academic work to achieve their dream of putting their name in lights. The show explores issues that confront many young people today, including prejudice, identity, self-worth, literacy and perseverance.

"Clifton Middle School students are learning and exhibiting these same life skills and discipline through their process of staging Fame Jr.", says Danielle Munoz, Director & Founder of One Music Stand Voice & Production and Fame Jr. Director.
