Affordable tickets offering Broadway quality
RICHARDSON, TX (http://www.myprgenie.com) -- JJ Pearce High School's performance of The Phantom of the Opera is a huge success with only seven performances remaining.
Several patrons had this to share after experiencing the show:
•"That show was absolutely PHENOMENAL! I can't even come off my cloud.. an hour after the show ended. UNBELIEVABLE! What talented students you have at JJ Pearce, and your musical and stage directors were incredible. And let's just talk about the tech crew: unrivaled in any high school, I have no doubt."
•"The show began, and when the famous music began and the chandelier was raised, I found the hair on my arms beginning to stand on end, my lower lip began to quiver, and tears threatened to make their way down my cheeks."
•"Just WOW! The orchestra was phenomenal. And when "Carlotta" began to sing, my chin hit the floor."
Flying by Foy, a Las Vegas-based company specializing in flying effects on stage for major theater, concert performers and TV and Film productions, was brought in to create the famous chandelier effect. The pyrotechnic specialist from Pyrotex offers a "wow" factor adding a professional effect sure to please any theater aficionado.
