"Beauty and the Beast" cast members visit Gill Hall Elementary School on February 15.

“Beauty and the Beast” is directed by Jim Benedek, who teaches Technology Education at TJHS. Julie Tipton, a TJ English and theater teacher, is the assistant director. Auditions for the spring musical were held in December and rehearsals began in January.

Tickets can be purchased online at https://tjhs.ludus.com/index.php.  Online advance tickets are $15; anyone age two or older will need a ticket.  Anyone interested in attending “Beauty and the Beast” is encouraged to buy their tickets in advance; previous TJ spring musical shows have sold out and sales weren’t available at the door. Free parking is available in front and behind the school.

Thomas Jefferson High School’s “Anything Goes: 2022 Revision” won three awards at last spring’s Pittsburgh CLO Gene Kelly Awards for Excellence in High School Musical Theater. Jaguar student Ashley Caldwell was named Best Supporting Actress. For the second consecutive year, TJ’s musical theater students captured Best Vocal Ensemble and Best Crew/Technical Execution in its budget level. Thomas Jefferson’s Anything Goes was nominated in all eight Gene Kelly Awards ensemble categories, including being one of the two Best Musical nominees in Budget Level IV.

In conjunction with the spring musical, the TJHS Marching Band is sponsoring its annual spaghetti dinner fundraiser and TJ musical theater celebration on Saturday, March 16 from 3-7 pm. The dinner will be held in the TJ cafeteria and there is a 7 p.m. performance of "Beauty and the Beast" that evening.
