Where There's Smoke... (A)

Regional A version available by request

Where There's Smoke... follows the harrowing tale of a team of firefighters battling an out of control blaze in the middle of the forest.  The show is broken up into 3 major segments.  Segment 1 deals with the actual battling of the forest fire: Extraordinarily intense and aggressive, this segment will draw the audience in right away and keep them engaged throughout the entire story.  Segment 2 is driven by the front ensemble expressing a somber mood that deals with the aftermath and the devastation.  Can the community rebuild?  Will things ever be the same?  The movement then segues into a snare moment that is accompanied by bright and major harmonies as well as visually bright colors.  Segment 3 represents a new growth and rebirth in the forest as the town gathers together and rebuilds from the devastation.
