\u201cThe dance in this is very minimal,\u201d said Clayton Guiltner, assistant professor of theatre and director of the musical. \u201cI would say it\u2019s not a large spectacle dance show by any stretch, but there\u2019s some really creative music in this in that it\u2019s got a lot of different styles of music. So what we are trying to do with the choreography is to emphasize those styles; it certainly will give Frankie (McDaniel) the opportunity to choreograph a show which is a great experience for him.\u201d<\/p>\n
Franklin \u201cFrankie\u201d McDaniel has taken on the choreography role for the production as his senior project, and Andria Phillips is the guest musical director.<\/p>\n
Guiltner describes the show as being a celebration of the mating game from dating and waiting, to love and marriage. The musical is a tribute to those who have loved and lost, to those who have fallen on their face at the portal of romance, and to all of those who have dared to ask, \u201cSo\u2026 What are you doing Saturday night?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you want a good laugh, and you just need a break from your stressful week, come see the show,\u201d Guiltner said. \u201cYou\u2019ll be very glad you did.\u201d<\/p>\n
