Transcendence Theatre Company Announces Cast And Creative Team For HOORAY FOR HOLLYWOOD

For the second show in their 2022 season of original outdoor musical revues, Transcendence Theatre Company will present HOORAY FOR HOLLYWOOD.

Conceived by and under the musical direction of Transcendence veteran Susan Draus, and directed and choreographed by Transcendence alum Alaina Mills, HOORAY FOR HOLLYWOOD celebrates the music that made audiences fall in love with movies.

"Everyone has a favorite song that reminds them of their favorite movie - whether it's Debra Winger being swept off her feet by Richard Gere in An Officer and a Gentleman, or Kevin Bacon dancing in Footloose, people love the movies!" said Susan Draus. "We want to celebrate all the classics and the music that make them so unforgettable."

Added Alaina Mills, "Music from movies sits within our memories so vividly, and hearing a song from our favorite film takes us back to the excitement of watching it for the first time. We want to bring that excitement to the Transcendence stage so our audiences can relive the magic of their favorite movies all over again."
