SOUTH ZANESVILLE – Maysville High School’s Music Department will perform Disney’s “Camp Rock, the Musical!” at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday in the Maysville 6–12 Auditeria. Tickets are available at the door.

The play includes Mitchie, who is played by Alexis Choo, Shane played by Bendigo Slack, Nate, Tess, Kaitlyn, Peggy and Ella.

As Rosie, the new girl at camp, meets up with other campers Barbara, Sandra, Candy, Krissa, Kyle and Kendra, she quickly learns camp is always fun and unpredictable.

Camp Rock Founder Brown Cesario, played by Luke Engle, soon finds out that another music camp founded by his ex-band mate Alex Turner has opened across the lake.

“Camp Wars” are led by TV personality Georgina and the outcome is revealed. How will it all end?
