Whose idea will be chosen for the big Senior Send-off
party — the snobby Chick Clique’s outer space theme or
the Dweebs’ Fifties Flashback suggestion? It appears
that the Dweebs haven’t a chance until Dweeb Dipsick
smuggles “fifties” music into the principal’s office. That
ploy, together with the spirit voice of Elvis himself,
brainwashes everyone. The Fifties Flashback idea wins
and the hilarity begins. Many original rock ’n roll songs
with solos, group and many novelty song-and-dance
numbers including: “I Love the Guys,” “Star
Struck,” “Fifties Tough Guys,” “KaBroom,
KaBroom,” “I Want Romance,” “I Want to Be a
Kid Again,” “Fifties Magic” and more! Comedy
roles for many in this easy-to-stage musical.

A delightful musical comedy version of the classic tale
everyone knows. Action, suspense and love. Despite
the comic bungling of Beauty’s bumpkin sisters, Beauty
saves her elderly father and tames the beast, who is
really a prince in thrall. Ten songs in a variety of
styles and tempos from soft rock to foot-stomping
rhythm and blues including: “Beauty to the
Beast,” “If You Only Knew My Heart,” “He’s
Good to Me,” “Where Do I Go from Here?” and
six more. The music may be performed as solos,
duets, quartets and comedy dance numbers. Only two
sets required.

My Nose” and “We’re Really a Team.” Easy to
