~ONSTAGE '98~

THE CIRCLE OF LIFE

~Rosemount High School is very excited to offer On Stage once again to the community. This show has been in my mind for the past two years. It has seen many changes along the way and I hope you enjoy the metamorphosis. The title - Circle of Life - is not intended to lure you into thinking this is a Lion King show alone but the "circle of life" in our lives. We begin, live through, and end our lives within various levels of love. We all experience different kinds of love - exhilarating, breath-taking, sad, lonely, desperate, puppy, first, fulfilling, meaningful - the list is as endless as our relationships in the Circle of Life. The show is staged using rock musicals as the genre thus there is little or no dialogue as is true with many contemporary musicals. May On Stage '98 provide you with the gratification of love renewed and find you well in this the season of love. John Zschunke, Director
