MESHpresents 'FAME the Musical'

Set during the final years of New York City's High School for the Performing Arts, “Fame—The Musical”, is the fast-paced, moving and ultimately inspiring story of its last graduating class. Exploring issues such as prejudice, identity, self-worth, peer pressure and perseverance; with a hit contemporary score including its classic title song, 'Fame', as well as the popular gospel ballads 'I Want to Make Magic' and 'Bring on Tomorrow'; and now with the candour, humour and insight of director Laura M Meldon, this global phenomenon has been brought to life once more for the MESHpresents 2009 youth production to be performed at the MetroArts Studio on Edward Street, May 21st-23rd, with performances at 11am Thurs-Fri and 7:30pm daily. Featuring an outstanding cast of Brisbane performers aged 12-25, with musical direction by Julie Whiting and choreography by Clay English, MESHpresents: "FAME" will be the hit youth production of the year.
