The Reality of Now (World Premiere Production May 2019; Cast B)
The World Premiere production of Annika Stenstedt's Who We Are: The Reality of Now features a cast made up of two class periods of Alameda High School's 2018-2019 Musical Theatre class. This video features leads from the 6th period cast. The other cast is also on this website. The show only ran for four performances, due to scheduling, so some footage was lost of various cast combinations, and some edits in each video flip back and forth between actors in a scene.
Who We Are: The Reality of Now is an original musical written by Annika Stenstedt from her freshman-senior year. It was then produced by Megan McKinley Beaudreau and the Alameda High School Drama Department her Senior Year (2018-2019).
Each cast recording features a different ending, determined by the separate casts to represent the reality of multiple happy endings beyond what’s expected of us.
No further workshop is yet planned for Who We Are: The Reality of Now, but some individual songs are set to be reworked for Annika’s contemporary portfolio.
