Art In Motion’s Musical Theater / Dance 2011-2012 News

Le MiserablesMiss Margie , Art In Motion has been selected to choreograph the musical, Mulan in a private school in Lafayette, Ca.  Working along side Amber Dyson as director and musical director. 

Miss Margie will also be working on The Wiz with SJOA Light ministry along side Keith Cosby as musical director and Bob Cummings as Producer.

Miss Margie has been asked to continue to direct and instruct in 2012 for the City of San Ramon Drama afterschool programs at Walt Disney, Twin Creeks and Quail Run Elementary schools in San Ramon.

 

 

Lastly, In the month of January 2012 Miss Margie will be working with the students at the Summit Charter High School in East San Jose - Tahoma Rainier ( featured in the movie “Waiting for Super Man”)  on Musical Theater for their intersession (students spend 4 weeks during normal school hours working creatively outside their normal curriculum with teaching artists) … FYI about this new chart school program…. Billionaire Meg Whitman bestowed $2.5 million on South Bay and Peninsula charter school programs. The donation will go to Summit Public Schools.  If the charter school’s name rings a bell, that’s because its first school in Redwood City was glamorously featured in the fire-alarm documentary Waiting for Superman. Whitman’s known for being a big fan of the film, which focuses on how the public education system is failing future generations.

 

Miss Margie has been asked to assistant direct and choreograph a new musical drama  ”La Llorona”  composed by Hector Armienta which is currently running in NYC.
