The Carlsbad High School Musical Production provides an opportunity for the artistic development of high
school age students while providing entertainment to Carlsbad residents and visitors. With six performances
over two weekends at the Carlsbad Cultural Arts Center, over 1,000 residents and visitors can enjoy the work
of 9th through 12th grade students who collaborate and create a Broadway-style musical brought to an even
higher quality through the training offered by the guest choreographer. The students in the cast are primarily
singers and actors, so a very special kind of choreographer who can teach novices complicated dance moves
is required.

State Standards Support
How does your arts education project support the California State Content Standards for the Arts? Please refer to
the California State Board of Education website for reference.
The California State Content Standards are used beginning with assessing a student's proficiency level at
auditions and then moving them toward a higher performance level in the one semester of time allotted for
this project. As stated in the standards on page 172:
"The four artistic processes addressed separately in the theatre standards (creating, performing, responding,
and connecting) are envisioned to occur simultaneously in the actual practice of theatre. The theatre student
makes a character, scene, or story—real or imagined—come alive (creating), shares it with others
(performing), analyzes and evaluates the product (responding), and connects the experience to all other
contexts of meaning or knowledge (connecting). As a result, aspects of multiple standards can be combined
within a learning activity: students can learn a skill, apply it to a scene, make creative decisions while in
rehearsal, think critically about their ideas, and relate their ideas to other experiences, contexts, and
meanings.
State Standards Descriptions
Please cite the specific numbers, grade level(s) and descriptions as they pertain to your project. Describe how the
curriculum and instruction (if applicable) of the project aligns to each standard. Please refer to California State
Board of Education website for reference.
"Performing -Anchor Standard 6: Convey Meaning Through The Presentation of Artistic Work

Previous Project Success:
If your organization has completed a similar project, please provide details of the project and why it was
successful.
For over 40 years, the Carlsbad High School Musical Production has contributed to the cultural landscape of
Carlsbad. As a community-based educational program, it has become a treasured tradition, as evidenced by
the inclusion of Carlsbad High School musical memorabilia in the Carlsbad Historical Society displays.
Evidence of the quality of the productions can be found in reviews and awards from the National Youth Arts

organization and Broadway San Diego Awards, where Carlsbad High School consistently receives accolades.
Three out of the five Theatre teachers in Carlsbad (Andrea Schuck Carlsbad High School, Jillian Porter-
Eshelman at Sage Creek High School, Olivia Hardy at Valley Middle School,) are alumni of this program. It is an
important and unique legacy that the community has embraced. The Carlsbad High School Musical
Production is often the first “real” play seen by Carlsbad children. Senior members of the community are
particularly fond of this art form, and the matinee is very popular with those who do not drive at night.
PProject Distinction:
What makes this project distinctive?
The proposed project meets the needs of high school age students to experience musical theatre without
paying a fee to be in a production. There is absolutely no cost to the student or to their family to participate,
so there is no economic barrier to the experience. Another bonus is that a student can learn dance outside of
the dance team structure. While there is an excellent dance program at Carlsbad High School that produces
the award-winning Lancer Dancers and Xcalibur dance teams, those dancers are defending their national
titles during the spring semester, and the dance teacher and her coaches are very busy with that worthy
endeavor. As a result, actors and singers make up the bulk of the cast of the Carlsbad High School Musical
Production, and they receive special instruction from the guest choreographers to learn the steps to make
their roles come to life on stage. Carlsbad High School Musical Production utilizes the talents of a guest
choreographer who is an expert at turning actors and singers with little to no dance experience into dancers.
Not only a former professional dancers, they also works with the mechanics of the body. Dewey Decking
current as a musical Theatre dance instructor, Mary White founder of Carlsbad Performing Arts Academy
showing the students how to move safely, avoiding injury. Their gift is to take students out of their comfort
zone physically and create musical theatre numbers that showcase what they have learned.
Project Goals:
What are the goals (outputs and/or outcomes) of the project? How will you measure your goals?
The goal of the Carlsbad High School Musical Production is to provide a life-long arts learning experience for
students while creating a performance that is accessible to the entire Carlsbad community. Student
engagement is the hallmark of the Carlsbad High School Musical Productions. Every day during the rehearsal
process, the students make new artistic choices, learning new styles and types of dance, discovering that they
are truly multi-talented. Each year a different type of musical is chosen by the director; during the course of a
student’s time at Carlsbad High School, they will have experienced many different types of musical theatre.
For example, the resumés of this year’s graduating class will list Mamma Mia, Spamalot and Catch Me If You
Can in addition to this year’s show. Individual incremental daily and weekly student progress evaluated by
the director, choreographer, and music director during rehearsals will result in a finished production.
In order to measure the effectiveness of arts instruction, the students in the Carlsbad High School Musical
Production will be judged and reviewed by evaluators from The Broadway San Diego Awards. Feedback from
the audience is also carefully considered. The director often receives emails and letters from audience
members who are not connected in any way with the students (particularly members of the area’s senior
population) that say how astonished they are at the quality of Carlsbad High School’s Musical Productions.

TTarget Population:
Who is your target population and why? How will you reach them?
The target audience of participants for this activity are 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th grade students at Carlsbad
High School. Using school and social media to broadcast auditions and distributing information through
student body marketing (posters on campus, flyers at student activities), we will bring a diverse population of
students into the experience. The show is marketed to high school age students through social media
(Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Carlsbad Theatre Department webpage) and through the student
broadcasting program (CHSTV) which is also streamed on the web.
The target audience of community members to view the production is from every age range. Local print
media (Carlsbad magazine) is utilized for promotion, and flyers and posters are distributed in locations such
as the Carlsbad Senior Center and libraries.
The demographics of those who come to see the Carlsbad High School Musical Production are not tracked (we
don’t require our ticket buyers to give their age); however, since it is something experienced by Carlsbad
families, multiple generations are involved. With the support of the Carlsbad Community Arts Grant Funding
Program, it will continue to involve all of these target audiences.

Organization Changes/Challenges/Circumstances:
What special circumstances, challenges or changes have affected your organization? What impact has this had on
your organization?
Beginning with this year’s senior class, students were rocked by the restrictions during the COVID lockdown.
They are still rebuilding their skills and making up for lost time with creative professionals. Each year they
improve and productions are returning to their previous strength.
In addition, Carlsbad High School experienced staff changes --- four Theatre teachers in six years --- which has
now stabilized with a teacher with 27 years of experience at the helm for the last two years. The Carlsbad
High School Musical Production is now on solid footing, with participation increasing and Andrea Schuck
heading an outstanding team.
