Throughout the year our Asteroids class will work on a number of songs that they will ultimately present at our Musical Theatre End of Year Showcase performances at the end of the year, on Saturday 22 November, 2025 (scroll down for more information about our 2025 Musical Theatre Showcase). 

Parents and Students are asked to keep an eye on this page, where updates, practice resources and homework notes will be regularly added throughout the year. 

TERM ONE SONG: Live in Living Colour
From Catch Me If You Can
With music by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman and lyrics by Terrence McNally

Catch Me If You Can follows the story of a con artist named Frank Abagnale in the 1960s in America. Our song “Live in Living Colour” opens the musical as Frank, a young con man, is cornered at the Miami International Airport by FBI agents. Before his arrest, Frank informs the people in the airport why he is being arrested.

TERM TWO SONG: Welcome to Wonderland
From Wonderland
With music by Frank Wildhorn and lyrics by Jack Murphy

Wonderland is a contemporary version of the novels Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865) and Through the Looking-Glass (1871) by Lewis Carroll, and is set in New York City and focuses on writer Alice Cornwinkle and her 10-year-old daughter Chloe.
Alice and Chloe have just moved to Queens, New York. Chloe laments about the move and her family's demise. After hitting her head in the elevator Alice learns that her children's book manuscript has been rejected by the publishers saying it is too dark for children. She falls asleep, only to be woken by the White Rabbit and taken to Wonderland. 
There, she encounters strange people and creatures in our song "Welcome to Wonderland".
