The Taylorville High School spring musical premiers this Thursday as the student actors present 42nd Street. This 1980s Broadway musical, set in the 1930s, is the story of a small-town girl with big-time dreams. Mylie Sims and Cayden Crowe are two leading cast members excited to bring their rendition of 42nd Street to the community.
From auditions to rehearsals, to costume and set design, the students have put in many hours to perfect this performance. Cayden Crowe spoke on the students and community members who also got involved to set the stage for the time period.
