Bonnie Hopkins and I are in the process of writing "DEGRASSI: The Musical!"Waste of Time? Perhaps.
Do I care? Not in the least! Second Semester Senioritis all overrr
Ideas--
Because this super melodramatic canadian teen drama is super full of huge conflicts, we've decided to write the thing 'in medias res'
The beginning will feature an instrumental version of the theme music as the prelude, transitioning to a minor key as the lights go down
We will then see snapshots of some of the fun little conflicts in degrassi
-rick's abuse relationship with terri, terri running away from rick, the the degrassi gang chasing him angrily
-craigs mood issues
-emma with her family, manny kicked out
-liberty and jt--pregnancy test
-paige and teacher crush walk by, followed by jay and alex
Soon, entire cast ends up on stage, for a toptapping opening number, loosely based on he theme music
moreeee laterrr!
