The Monmouth-Roseville T.I.T.A.N.S. and V.O.I.C.E. Programs present their summer musical “Deamland” Friday, July 21st and Saturday, July 22nd at 7 pm at the Warren County History Museum in Monmouth. As part of her summer project, Monmouth-Roseville High School graduate and current Musical Theater Major and Dance Minor at Western Illinois University Kenna McCance is helping direct the musical and explains the plot:
“It is a modern take on ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ by William Shakespeare, but it doesn’t have any Shakespeare language, so if that bores you, you are fine. It takes place in Area 51 after the government got tired of people constantly breaching it and said that they were just going to open it to the public because we are tired of doing it, so they try to make it this family, friendly attraction. In order to do that, they bring in four honor students from the local private prep school and tell them to explore the base and prove there are no aliens here, so everyone will get off our backs. The winner of this contest with the best research gets a full ride scholarship to whatever school they want.”
“Dreamland” is free to attend and open to the entire public.
