Tarzan, the musical at CCA




After you've planned on seeing "The Butler Did It , Again" at the MACC, don’t miss the premiere of Disney’s newest theatrical extravaganza, “Tarzan”, at the Center for Creative Arts.  CCA is one of four high schools around the country chosen by Disney to premier this show. It is a Hamilton County magnet school for the arts and includes students from all over Hamilton County, including the Signal Mountain area. Disney officials will be on hand for opening night.  The show is based on Disney’s animated film of the same name. 

The show stars senior, David Couter, as Tarzan.  Couter recently won recognition as the best high school actor in Tennessee at a competition held during the Tennessee State Theater Convention.  Co-staring as Jane is Brittni Rhodes, who won a Chattanooga Theater Center Miss Annie award last year for her performance as Penny Pingleton in “Hairspray”.  In addition to a dynamite cast and choreography by Lindsey Fussell, Tarzan will swing through the jungle with the help of the well know rigging company, Flying by Foy.

The show opens Thursday, February 16th and runs through Saturday the 18th with shows at 7:00 PM each evening.  Tickets at the door are $5 for students and $10 for adults.  Reserve seats are $15 each and can be obtained by calling 209-5942.
