Sweat, tears go into making of tBirdie' Finally after two months of hard work iiBye Bye Birdie, the 19505 musical about an EIvis-type singer, was performed at Eden Prairie High School. A cast and crew of nearly 60 students were involved. A lot of sweat and a lot of tears went in- to the making of it, but as Stephanie Van Asten said, uIt was great! It was fun to work with and a really fun musical to see. Darla Best agreed with this and said, It was great. I loved every minute of it. Even those behind the scenes enjoyed it, as Kristen Johnson who helped with make-up said, iiThe acting was good. They all worked hard and did a super job. iiBye Bye Birdie was a good musical which was made possible by the terrific group of people on the stage, as well as those behind the scenes. 16 w Musical iiBye Bye Birdie Leads and Directors: Front Row: Greg Gardner, Chris Reid.
