Niwot High School presents Beauty and the Beast

Every year at Niwot High School, members of all parts of the school come together to create a musical. This year, the show is Beauty and the Beast. It was especially designed to be aimed towards kids this year, explained Ms. Amanda Foust, one of the teachers in charge of the production.

Members of the cast are "on tour" at elementary schools where they perform a few songs in full costumes so younger children can experience the show.

But the show's not only great for the kids. "I feel like [being in the musical] has been such a great experience," said Pali Sauer, one of the featured dancers in the show. "I loved having a bigger cast and getting to know more people, as well as, everyone is just incredibly passionate and hard-working, and ... rehearsals all went really smoothly. I feel like we've really bonded as a cast."

The performances will take place on March 9 and 10 at 7 p.m. and March 11 at 1 p.m. and 7 p.m., and tickets are available for purchase. "I really hope we break ticket sales," Sauer said. "It would really be such an achievement, and people should come see it!"
