R-FH Musical 'Aida: School Edition'

Show opens on March 22


The Rumson-Fair Haven Regional (R-FH) High School Tower Players will present Elton John and Tim Rice’s Aida: School Edition, “a contemporary musical take on a grand classic tale” based on the Verdi opera on March 22, 23, and 24. 

The story centers on Aida, a Nubian princess who becomes enslaved by Radames, an Egyptian soldier. A forbidden love blossoms between them, and their example of devotion eventually transcends the differences in their status and their warring nations and leads to a time of peace and prosperity. 

The score features exciting production numbers and African tribal percussion on stage. 

This production features a cast of many talented students, including: Clare Fitzgerald, as Aida, and Harrison Best as Radames; Julia Mosby, as Amneris, and Jack Newsome as Mereb.
