Most Likely To: The Senior Superlative Musical

On the Boards
Jason Cocovinis:

This past weekend I had the chance to see an original Off-Broadway musical written by the co-author of “The Awesome 80s Prom”, Michael Tester.

 

Presented by Broadway Clubhouse and Shortened Attention Span, MOST LIKELY TO sets the Drama Queens vs. the Jocks, the Glee Club vs. the Goths in a Senior Superlative Showdown.  The show highlights the true-to-life musings of high school students labeled "most likely to …" by classmates! Inspired by students at the Long Island High School for the Arts, MOST LIKEY TO employs a senior superlative ceremony as its unifying arc in showcasing the seriocomic musings of students labeled everything from Most Popular to Class Clown.

 

 

 

What made this performance-run so special is the return of the all-teen cast of 12 (including some of the original Dramatist Guild Workshop cast members).  It was easy to see their energy and passion for the roles they helped originate.  Much like Jason Robert Brown’s 13, this show benefited from having age-appropriate actors in the lead roles.  I’d love to learn more about how each individual actor helped shape their respective role and what unique experiences from their “real lives” were brought to their characters’.  Maybe I’ll ask them to share their thoughts, here on MTI ShowSpace.  Stay tuned.
