Abstract

This project entailed the selection, background research and documentation, musical analysis, casting, direction, vocal coaching, and post-production analysis of Ridgefield High School's production of Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt's The Fantasticks. Documentation includes research and analysis of the play, its music, and an evaluation of the musical as a production vehicle for the Department of Theatre Arts at Central Washinton University. The analysis also includes a discussion as to the non-traditional directorial vision of this production.
