This time we’re headed “back to school”! Based on the ever-popular, award-winning 1970s cartoons, this fast-paced musical teaches lessons with clever, catchy tunes. Based on the Emmy Award-winning 1970s educational animated TV series, "Schoolhouse Rock Live! Jr." uses the familiar songs from the cartoons to teach grammar, math, science, history, social studies and political science while telling the story of Tom, a young teacher nervously anticipating his first day on the job. Twenty-five years after the first clips aired, “Schoolhouse Rock” is bigger than ever. Now, "Schoolhouse Rock Live! Jr." brings the magic of "Schoolhouse Rock" to the stage. From the opening notes of “A Noun Is a Person, Place or Thing,” through the rousing closer, “Interjections!” "Schoolhouse Rock Live! Jr." delivers hit after hit to the delight of audiences and performers of all ages. Sage Studio students have spent three weeks honing their musical theatre skills and learning all about the “behind the scenes” of what goes into a mainstage Raue Center show–while working right alongside our cast and crew of professional Chicagoland actors and technicians. Now they put those skills into practice for an audience as part of the youth cast for our very own full-scale production of "Schoolhouse Rock Live! Jr.", performing for one weekend on Raue Center’s stage! "Schoolhouse Rock Live!
