"Put your faith in what you most believe in. Two worlds, one family. Trust your heart, let fate decide to guide these lives we see." Disney's TARZAN, "Two Worlds"
These are the iconic words of Disney's TARZAN, a movie that I grew up with and have always loved (fun fact: it was actually the first movie I saw in theaters). I love the story line and the general aesthetic of the movie which, I think, was very well animated. The music from the movie, and musical, is absolutely phenomenal as well!
This academic year, I was fortunate enough to be cast in Theatre on the James' production of TARZAN. This process has been a lot of work but we, as a cast have pushed through and made this one of the best rehearsal experiences that I have ever been a part of. I am blessed to be able to perform in this show beside talented performers, and fellow bloggers, Morgan and Holly, and to finally get perform in a show with my sister!
The show follows Tarzan, everyone's favorite ape-man (yes, he beats out George of the Jungle . . . mainly because he DOESN'T bump into any trees) as he grows up and discovers who is really is and where he belongs. The show has all of your favorite Tarzan characters, minus Tantor (it's okay though because our Terk has enough personality for both characters and Timon and Pumba combined!), and all of the iconic TARZAN songs - including "Son of Man", 'Two Worlds" and, everyone's favorite, "Trashin' the Camp" - along side new numbers.
The cast of James River High School's Theatre in the James' production of Disney's TARZAN: The Stage Musical has been hard at work for months tackling this show and are ready to show it off to the world. So mark your calendars because the show opens next week and will be running January 23, 24, and 25 at 7:30 PM. Tickets are $5 for students and $10 for adults and can be purchased at the door! This show is going to be excellent so, you better be there because we don't want to perform to an empty house (we do that enough in rehearsals)!
"Son of man look to the sky. Lift your spirits, set it free. Someday you'll walk tall with pride. Son of man a man in time you'll be!" Disney's TARZAN, "Son of Man"
