Appropriate for High School & Middle School studentsUnit set Matters of importance to contemporary teen-agers in school are explored in Homeroom. The show begins with Jeff, expressing the belief that the kids in his homeroom have nothing in common except for their last name starting with the letter “V”. Fifteen songs later, Jeff is more aware of the similarities than the differences. The teens come together to share their feelings regarding relationships, academic success and failure and the significance of bullying, secrets, lies, loss and lockers. Their individual stories weave together a musical that addresses themes of understanding, acceptance, independence and responsibility.Homeroom addresses the objectives and standards of character education, encouraging understanding, acceptance, independence, responsibility and citizenship.A sellout at the Walnut Street Theatre in Philadelphia, this insightful show is a perfect choice for middle/high schools. "Thank you for creating a powerful musical that empowers middle school kids to find their voice and simultaneously communicate an important message to the world." –Ross M. Burkhardt, National Teacher Hall of Fame Inductee."Most young people feel different, but don't talk about it. One isolated teenager could become a victim and another could become a bully. "Homeroom" opens up a dialogue that can change the way our children see each other and themselves. I would like to see "Homeroom" in every school." –Dr. Dan Gottlieb, Psychologist and Family Therapist; nationally recognized mental health expert; Author of Letters to Sam and Learning from the Heart "Character Education at it's best! Homeroom breaks down the barriers of labels and ...KIDS CONNECT." –Dr. Frances J. Rhodes, Superintendent of SchoolsLicensing fees quoted upon application. Music package available rental.
