school musicals
Auditorium stage performances
School musicals are theatrical productions staged by students, typically at middle schools and high schools.
They combine acting, singing, and dancing, often adapting Broadway shows or original scripts suited to younger performers.
For many students, they're a first experience with live theater: She got the lead in the school musical.
The term evokes both the excitement of performance and the amateur charm of teenage productions.
