The Manitoba Micro-Musical Project For Students is a new initiative for teachers and students across Manitoba to safely create their own micro-musical with resources and support from Rainbow Stage and professional local artists.

WHAT IS A MICRO-MUSICAL?
During a time when middle schools and high schools are unable to do their annual musical, the Micro-Musical is an opportunity to express yourselves in a new and safe way!

HOW WE CAN HELP!
The Micro-Musical Project offers professional guidance for teachers and students across the province to create their own collective-musical-creation! This project will support teachers with curriculum connections, zoom sessions, support videos (with local professional artists) and documents.

IGNITING CONNECTION
The Micro-Musical Project aims to remove barriers to accessing professional training and guidance for students who may not otherwise have access to arts education and programming. It offers the opportunity for Rainbow Stage to connect with new emerging talent and see new works being formed and created. It also offers the opportunity to have your work viewed by the Artistic Director, the Rainbow Stage team and members of Rainbow Stage’s School Awards Committee.

DREAM YOUR DREAM
Musical theatre has always been an evolving art form, and with this project we want teachers and students to push the boundaries of what defines a musical. This project is up to your own interpretation. We want students to create art that represents their inner expression and their ideas during this time of transformation. Students can find inspiration in just about anything…from news stories, fictitious worlds or comedic sketches, to cultural legends and stories from local communities or lives of historic figures. Our goal is for students to be the driving force behind their collective creations and for Rainbow Stage to offer guidance along the way.

We want you to show us what the future of musical theatre can be!
