As he prepares for adulthood, Will wrestles with separating truth from fiction and ultimately discovers what kind of man—and father—he wants to become. The musical blends humor, heart and fantasy into a story about family and legacy.Behind the scenes, nearly 40 students are working to bring the production to life, from cast members to tech and costume crews. President of the Titan Theatre Group, Kole Alcorn, said selecting and staging a musical is no small task.<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=14jFaj_1956hKZa00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=14jFaj_1956hKZa00" width="1200" height="696" ><figcaption>Instagram: @wctitantheatregroup</figcaption></figure>“Choosing a musical is a highly complex process. There are a lot of factors you have to balance. The difficulty of the music, what kind of set needs to be created, if the musical is financially doable, if there is a lot of dancing and how difficult the dancing would be, how large the cast is, and you have to think about all of this in relation to the group of students you have interested,” Alcorn said.Once selected, the work intensifies. Students dedicate six to eight weeks to rehearsals, spending between four and eight hours per week in organized practice—often more outside of rehearsal time.“For a musical, 6-8 weeks of rehearsal is the typical amount of time to put in. During that time, you look at somewhere around 4-8 hours a week just being in rehearsals, depending on the role and what parts are called to rehearse,” Alcorn said.Entirely student-led, the Titan Theatre Group provides opportunities for students both on stage and behind the scenes.<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=01T5lf_1956hKZa00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=01T5lf_1956hKZa00" width="1204" height="826" ><figcaption>Instagram: @wctitantheatregroup</figcaption></figure>“We have an amazing group of motivated students who are putting everything they have into creating a professional and wonderful performance,” Alcorn said. “The show is a heartfelt story with comedy and love that is something that everyone can enjoy!”Tickets are $20 for adults, $15 for senior citizens and military members and $10 for children. The show is open to the public, and tickets are available online at titan.booktix.com.</div></body>
