MAUP #22 - What is Pit Orchestra?
The Tuckahoe artists are revving up in preparation for Into the Woods! The annual school musical was cancelled two years ago and was virtual last year due to COVID-19. So this is the first time in two years time that we get to put on a show with live music again!
The focus of music theatre is inevitably the talented actors on stage, but what if there was no music? The show would lose half of its excitement. So let's talk about the music-makers that are the cornerstones of musicals. Tune in to hear from our special guest Mr. D, Broadway's conductor and cellist, for some exclusive professional pit musician knowledge!
