About The Music Man, Jr.

Join students from both Anderson Middle School and Norup International School as they bring River City, Iowa and the classic love story between the very structured librarian Marian Paroo and the unpredictable traveling salesman Harold Hill.  A host of other characters including a meddling salesman Charlie Cowell, the Mayor and his spotlight hungry wife, Eulalie, the arguing school board and their gossiping wives, Harold's old pal Marcellus and a town full of kids as members of a would be River City Boys' Band make your trip to town an interesting one! 

With classic music from Meredith Willson's "Music Man," this production will have you tapping your toes and humming memorable songs and performances for weeks to come!

Will the boys get their band?  Will Marian see through Harold's ways?  Will Harold make a sale and get out of dodge?  There's only one way to find out!

About The Department

Be Drama: The Berkley High School Drama Department celebrating the only art form (Theatre) combining all other art forms (Acting, Music, Dance, Visual Arts). 

Mission Statement - 

to entertain, enlighten, educate and enthrall through the enjoyment of the Dramatic Arts and the encouragement of Dramatic People.

Now in our sixth year, Be Drama is thrilled to continue it's "Broadway or Bust" season with the Broadway classic "The Music Man, Jr." January 11 & 12, 2018 at 7PM featuring students from Anderson Middle School and Norup International School. 

Our spring musical at BHS will be the uproariously hilarious "The Drowsy Chaperone" Thursday through Saturday, March 22 - 24 at 7PM and Sunday, March 25 at 3PM. This unbelievably funny show within a show is often described as "crazy," "madcap," and "the funniest show I've ever seen!" 

In April, the Drama Club will once again take Manhattan as we hit the streets of New York City! Our tour of NYC will include seeing shows, museums, sight-seeing and workshops among so much more! 

Join us on Cinco de Mayo (May 5) for our Sixth Annual Be Drama Senior Showcase! Support the Be Drama class of 2018 as they hit the stage one more time showcasing their favorite moments on the Berkley High School stage.
