In recent days, the Music Room C505 has been buzzing with energy during lunch breaks and after-school hours. Rehearsals for the Winter Musical have become increasingly busy as the official performance date is now less than a week away.

Titled “Milly’s Christmas Wish,” the musical is staged and performed by the teachers and students of The Dewey Schools Tay Ho Tay, promising to open a dazzling world of lights, music, and magical storytelling. It is also a stage where TDSers can shine through their talents in acting, singing, and dance.

With the participation of over 500 Elementary School TDSers, this year’s Winter Musical continues to be a space for students to showcase their confidence and artistic individuality. Mr. Daniel McColgan, Drama Teacher and one of the key creators behind the production, shared that he feels truly surprised and proud this year. Despite their young age, the students demonstrate a highly professional attitude and work ethic. What excites him the most is how the entire cast — from leading roles to supporting characters — truly lives on stage, fully embodying their characters’ emotions in every scene and every song, rather than simply singing or dancing.

Beyond the dazzling moments on stage, this year’s Winter Musical is further marked by the involvement of students in behind-the-scenes support roles. This offers them valuable opportunities to observe, experience, and better understand the event organization process, while learning teamwork, initiative, and coordination to create a truly memorable Winter Musical together.

Notably, Mr. Daniel revealed that this will be “the most spectacular Winter Musical ever!” What magical worlds will our young musical performers lead parents and teachers to explore? Let’s look forward to the upcoming Winter Musical!
