The cast of Rabun Gap High School’s production of “High School Musical” brought the magic of Disney to the stage this month. The production, directed by Joshua Miller, featured over 50 students from the school’s arts program.

The show, which played Feb. 8-10 on the Rearden Stage, featured a talented cast led by a handful of seniors. Cyrus Manoogain and Lauren Eubanks played Troy and Gabriella, respectively. Other notable leads included seniors McKenna Green as Taylor, Tyler Price as Chad, Edwin Wood as Ryan, and Sophia Moore as Sharpay.

The production team, which included over 20 students, worked tirelessly to prepare for the show, starting in November.

“We are so proud of our students for their hard work and dedication to making ‘High School Musical’ a resounding success,” said Miller. “This production has not only showcased their artistic talents but has also brought our school community together in a celebration of creativity and teamwork.”

Kimmie Gee was the show’s choreographer, while Mary Lauren Keeny served as music director. June Baumann was the assistant music director, and Joey Wade led the production team as technical director.

“We are so grateful for the support the community continues to show for our arts program. The success of “High School Musical” stands as a testament to Rabun Gap’s vibrant and thriving arts community, and I am incredibly proud of everyone involved,” said Head of School Jeff Miles.
