Students at Dominion Middle School traveled back more than 100 years (and trek west a few states) for their spring musical this year. Audience members sat in the expansive auditorium at the DMS building, 100 Arcadia Ave., to watch The Music Man Jr. Set in Iowa in 1912, the Broadway classic has been adapted for younger performers. The original first hit the stage in 1957 and went on to win five Tony Awards.

An enjoyable evening of light entertainment.
