Mount Carmel School\u2019s Theatre Club presented True Colors<\/em>, an original jukebox musical, at the Pacific Islands Club Charley\u2019s Cabaret last Jan. 27 and 28. The musical, about a girl on the nonverbal end of the autism spectrum who tries to find her place and her voice in a new school, was a huge success with standing-room only, sold-out performances, rave reviews, and an audience that loved the show.<\/p>\n

With incredible acting, signing, and dancing, the cast delivered amazing performances, and with an innovative production design, the crew set the stage for a one-of-a-kind production. So, it comes as no surprise that, as with many previous productions from the school\u2019s Theatre Club, everyone laughed, everyone cried, and everyone was inspired. (PR)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
