Raue Center’s Sage On Stage is back!–and this time we’re headed “back to school”!
Students will spend four weeks honing their musical theatre skills, working alongside our cast and crew of professional Chicagoland actors and technicians, learning what goes on “behind the scenes” of a mainstage Raue Center show. Students will get to build on all the great performance fundamentals we teach in the classroom, then 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 two weekends on Raue Center’s stage!
Your enrollment fee includes two complimentary tickets to the show of your choice, with additional tickets available for purchase for friends and family!

ABOUT THE SHOW
The Emmy Award-winning Saturday morning educational cartoon series and pop culture phenomenon is now the basis for one of the most fun and easily mounted musicals ever to hit the stage, Schoolhouse Rock Live! This energetic musical follows a young school teacher, who is nervous about their first day of teaching. They try to relax by watching TV, when various characters representing facets of their personality emerge from the set and show them how to win their students over with imagination and music. Memorable songs, “Just a Bill,” “Lolly, Lolly, Lolly” and “Conjunction Junction” bring their lesson plans vividly to life.
