Drew has fallen on hard times and has withdrawn himself from his family, friends, and his dancing,But when he witnesses a robbery and murder by some fellow students in the school, Drew has to choose between being a cowardly bystander or fighting back. In a school of cut-throat competition, Drew will need more than just talent if he wants to survive and come out on top.Hip hop dance will be his secret weapon and rap will be his battle Cry in “Hip Hop High-The Musical”
Project Overview:
Hip Hop High: The Musical, tentative title, is a narrative feature film currently in development by Z-MAN FILMS AND RECORDS. The film is a musical drama,which appeals to the family, teen, and urban markets. The film is part of a larger franchise, which is slated to include an adapted stage version of the film, and a soundtrack with subsequent music videos. Hip Hop High will primarily be developed as a branded product that would appeal to third party production entities, such as Disney, Paramount, Fox, or Sony, who would be interested in acquiring the film during
its development phase, because of its commercial
viability
Hip Hop High-The Musical Makes The New
York International Fringe Festival
Will Hip Hop Ever transcend to Broadway, that question may soon be answered. Hip Hop High-The Musical will be hitting the New York International Fringe Festival in August. The musical produced by Z-Man Films and Records has been working to launch the film and the staged musical of the same name for the last two years with great success.
Z-Man; the writer/producer/creator of “Hip Hop High-The Musical” feels that the project is getting the break it so needed to get the attention of the
general public to push toward Broadway and Off-Broadway stages.
Although our Main target is Broadway , we are seeking off Broadway stages, colleges and High schools around the world, says Z-Man.
I feel that the young adults can relate to a show that won’t be sugar coated or happy-go-lucky. Hip Hop High is real, it’s truly from the hood, the music,
the dance and the overall feel of the musical; is what young adults are feeling today.
The New York International Fringe Festival is the same festival that have launch hits shows like Tony-Award – winning “Urinetown” and off Broadway hits like “Matt and Ben, ” The New York International Fringe
Festival may have just found another hit with “Hip Hop High-The Musical”
The festival is expecting great things from this years lineup and we anticipate “Hip Hop High-The Musical” to be a favorite among the young adult
demographic audience. “Hip Hop High” will be featured in the “Fringe High” Section of The New York International Fringe Festival, a program targeting
young adults and high school students.
All in all only time will tell if Hip Hop will ever transcend to Broadway, but with shows on Broadway like “The Heights” and “Bring Da Noise, Bring da Funk” it’s only a matter of time before “Hip Hop High-The Musical” makes it’s mark on Broadway or Off Broadway stages.
