Newark Drama Club to stream ‘We Will Rock You’
COURTESY OF BRENDA SCHOOL
Newark High School Drama Club’s cast and crew of the Queen musical “We Will Rock You: School Edition” have worked under COVID guidelines and challenges to produce the school’s first filmed musical.
The final product will be streamed at 7 p.m. May 14-15 and 2 p.m. May 16.
“It’s our most unique musical production to date,’’ director Emily Howard said. “Like every school district, Newark faced challenges when mounting a spring musical. Students had to be 12 feet apart when singing. In order to safely capture the audio, we took advantage of our recording studio right at NHS. Our soloists took turns singing in the booth over the musical tracks. It made us feel like real, professional musicians. For our ensemble sound, we captured the group on stage one night during a recording session. This gave students another unique experience.

December 9, 2020 The deep-set nature of gender norms explains why change is slow, and why it demands more than a few individuals changing their own attitudes and behaviour - change is needed across society. Gender norms are the implicit informal rules about appropriate behaviour for people of different genders that most people accept and follow. This report from Overseas Development Initiative (ODI) s Advancing Learning and Innovation on Gender Norms (ALiGN) platform examines how gender norms have changed in the 25 years since the United Nations (UN) s Beijing Platform for Action on women s rights was set out in 1995, and their role in progress and setbacks to achieving these rights. Drawing on global data and learning, it also explores what has supported and blocked changes to gender norms in a number of sectors, and how to ensure that change is faster and robust enough to resist backlash and crisis.
