Julia Veloso and Brian Sumereau Project
Incoming seniors Julia Veloso and Brian Sumereau have written their own original musical that they plan on putting together next year.
They are not doing it as a senior project, although it was originally a possibility. The rule used to be that seniors cannot work in pairs on their project. However, that rule has been changed. Still, Veloso and Sumereau decided not to make this a senior project.
“We don’t want to slap a grade on something that’s based on creativity,” said Veloso.
The musical is about a series of nine characters, their individual lives, and how they all intertwine.
The script is complete and Veloso and Sumereau are going to hold auditions followed by practices as a double Pascack Period class. They are planning on putting on three shows at the end of May.
