Once on This Island - We Dance - Schenley High School

[RydainDarkstar]

1994 was my freshman year. I was the grand homme with the long blonde braid - one heck of a nerd back then, and I still am. (Software engineer!) This video gives me chills - brings back memories of arduous nights of practice, well-earned praise from our awesome director, and the glorious energy of performance. I'm forever grateful for the chance to work with Mr. B and such great student talent to put on one unforgettable show. Thanks so much for sharing this video.

This is my very FIRST performance ever! I am the storyteller holding the cane in the first 40 seconds, alongside "Ms. McKrell"(I don't belive kids are calling her Ms. McKrell!). I credit this play as being my first, directed by the now late Roger Babusci aka Mr. "B". Schenley shows were reknowned in Pittsburgh, PA because of what this man taught us. "Believe in the Magic", he would say to us and we always have. We love you, Mr "B" and we will never forget you.

Rest in Peace

McKrell is doing a a great job passing down the magic!

This number is waaaaay over-choreographed. It's like a Disney-on-steroids version of the number - takes out all of the organic soul and only leaves a kitschy, cartoonish quality behind.

[marthamaya77]

I don't think it was overly choreogrphed, it just wasn't the right type of dance. It should have been more African, and less ballet. But you're right, it was too kitchy. And everyone kept speeding up singing the song. It kind of bothered me.

[terika83]

So I take it you are another fellow Schenley Alumn....Schenley plays were the BEST. Mr. B. did not play. :)
