The male parts are easy enough though... I love the idea of doing Aida- but I don&#39;t think we&#39;d fine the female vocalist with that range and power in her voice. 
<br><br>AND I stress the IMPOSSIBLE-NESS of the vocal harmony lines! We couldn&#39;t even get a 5 part harmony line for &quot;Rock the Boat&quot; down properly... we don&#39;t have the male or female vocalist to do justice to Aida... But that&#39;s just my opinion on Aida.
<br><br>High School Musical would sell hugely to families as it is Disney... and to be able to whack that DISNEY logo on a poster will automatically make it sell. And when parents bring their kids to Disney shows they always buy programs (I worked at &quot;Disney on Ice&quot; and they bought programmes for €12!!!) 
<br><br>Listing to the soundtrack- yes it is cheesy- but... since it&#39;s cheesy... I obviously like it!!!<br><br>The vocals sound easy, its sounds fun, it sounds like its designed to make you feel good about yourself. Everything about it is appealing! (Actually I&#39;m listening to it now as I type this... and &quot;we&#39;re all in this together!&quot;... S Club 7 eat your heart out!!!) Also- the dancing is limitless so it could be really &#39;fun&#39; to do!
<br><br>Basically- I really like Joey&#39;s suggestion... High School Musical has my vote... twice... oh the cheese...<br><br>With CHEESE please... =)<br>Steve<br><br><br><br><br><br><div><div><span class="e" id="q_110092dfb806a1c5_1">

<div><span>Hey Guys,<br><br>Ok firstly Im going to give you the good news: We have hired a choreographer! yay!<br><br>Bad news is...we can&#39;t do The Hot Mikado. I spoke to the chair of the Teacher&#39;s Society and they said it isn&#39;t up to them. Basically they&#39;ve had the rights since last March! Weinberger should have gotten in touch with us to inform us of this much sooner - but they didnt. Plus they have no idea how far anyone in Ireland is away from each other. According to the chair of the society - they called weinberger when they recieved the Helix brochure! Whoops! So I&#39;ve gotten upset - and angry and it didnt solve things. 
<br><br>Basically - we need to pick a new show. I&#39;m going to all Jamie first thing in the morning to discuss our options. I&#39;m going to send an email to Tara &quot;our favourite person ever&quot; Nolan now...cuz the Helix need to be informed. CRINGE. 
<br><br>Anyone has any ideas...send em this way.<br><br>Suz<br clear="all"><span><br>-- <br>Susan Doyle<br>Sponsorship Officer DCU Drama </span><br></span></div><span>_______________________________________________
