Northside Elementary School presents the musical, “I Love Rock & Roll: A Musical Time Machine,” on Thursday, May 7th at 6:30pm in the NES gymnasium. Directed by Kelly Jo Birmingham, the fifth grade students will present popular rock songs of each decade, beginning in the 1950s.
While DeKalb County does not have a theater for public performances of the arts, Northside Elementary School’s spring musical provides our students with the opportunity for artistic expression. This year’s production is comprised of approximately one hundred, seventy-five fifth grade students plus staff. “I Love Rock & Roll: A Musical Time Machine” is a student-based community project, combining the talents of Northside students, faculty, and staff, as well as the talents of several Smithville community members. Former Northside parent, and Smithville resident, “The StyckMan” of 94.7 The Country Giant, will be performing in Northside’s musical. He states, “This will be my 5th musical with Northside, however I’ve never been on the stage with the students until now. I will tell you this: this show will be different from anything that we’ve ever put on stage”.
Admission is free to the public. Come support the arts at Northside Elementary School this Thursday evening!
