HI Pamela! Do take another look at Schoolhgouse Rock Live. This show is having a big renaissance with the revival of the TV shows. I have just seen some middle school versions of it that were spectacular...classy, fun and clever. It allows for alot of creativity or a solid show that is very enjoyable without any frills..up to you. One of my SMASH Make a Musical Schools is doing it with HS kids. They are using their own school as scenic backdrop and the kids are having a great time. Mulan is one of the more difficult shows but worth every effort put into it. We just adjudicated a young group do it very simply and it was breathtaking. It is a great one for the size cast you have. Alice has a very Monty Python strand of humor through it and kids love the absurdity and it is fun to stage. Timing and delivery are key for the actors in this show. Willy Wonka is downright fun all over. Do take some perusals and read them "with your eyes only" as you may have simply seen performances that didn't sell you on the stories.You may have an entirely different vision with YOUR kids. The JR Theater Festival in Atlanta every Janurary is a wonderful venue to see all levels of performances of all the shows.
