A Pop Musical” is based on Jane Austen’s 1815 novel “Emma” and features songs made popular by the Supremes, Whitney Houston, Katy Perry and Cyndi Lauper.

A Pop Musical.” “They both talk about universal things.” This is what makes a story like “Emma” easy to adapt to the modern day. I’m so happy that we’re presenting this on Mother’s Day weekend, because the moms and grandmas who come will recognize the songs...” Jamie Wilcox YouTheatre director “You can set this in any time period,” Wilcox said. “In fact, the movie ‘Clueless’ (1995) was based on ‘Emma.’” Wilcox loves using plays and musicals like “Emma” to introduce kids to authors who many would not read unless they were told they had to for school. “It’s like giving them a different path to these books and it’s a lot of fun,” Wilcox said. She also likes that the upcoming production is a mashup of 1815 and 2017. “Our choreographer, Chantelle Wells, has worked into the dancing, some elements of what you would have seen in dances during Jane Austen’s time,” Wilcox said. The nods to the past are also evident in the set design and costumes. “While the sets are very 130 “Fiddler” meddler Down 1 “La Bohéme” role 2 McGregor of “Trainspotting” 3 Familia girl 4 Trudges 5 Creamy sauce 6 __ Biscuit, product debut of 1912 7 ’50s-’60s sitcom nickname 8 “The Wreck of the Mary Deare” author Hammond __ 9 “MIB” characters 10 Construction units 11 Word of possession 12 Mandatory bet 13 Words after “jolly” in an iconic ad 14 Affaire de coeur 15 “Really?!” 16 Diva Te Kanawa 17 Something to build on 21 Cons 23 Theme 27 Whiz 28 Big beef 31 Kid’s plea 33 Ping-Pong shot 34 35 37 38 40 42 __ bean “Good Eats” host Brown Sun blocker Briefcase fastener Ruin, weatherwise “Double, double toil and trouble” time 43 This and this 45 Energize 46 Rock genre 47 Heron cousin 49 Baseball or football 53 Reject 56 Simpson trial figure Kaelin 58 Chicago exchange, briefly, with “the” 59 Stagger 62 Fey in American Express ads 64 “Pronto!” 65 Do-it-yourselfer’s buy 66 Hollywood Walk of Fame symbol 68 Not as much 69 __ Pie 72 Wall builder 73 Boredom 74 Compact supplies 75 Certain bond, briefly 76 Best Buy buy 78 Caused by 79 Rubberneck 80 Maestro Solti 84 Outstanding 85 Modeled, say 88 Arranges strategically 90 “In my opinion ... ” 91 Author Chomsky 94 It’s on the house 96 X, at times 97 Progressive movement 98 Antipasto fish 101 Exerciser’s accessory 106 Slowly, in music 107 Toughen 108 Ripped off 110 Website charge 111 Locks in a barn? 112 What seems like forever 113 One of Chekhov’s “Three Sisters” 115 Duty 116 Pac-12 team 117 Harbinger 118 Imperfection 119 Where Anheuser-Busch is BUD 122 “Ben-Hur” studio SUDOKU sparse and we use a lot of video projections, our video designer, Jenn Silva, has flavored her illustrations with storybook illustrations that reflect that time,” Wilcox said. “And the costumes, which were made by Angie Tallent with the help of Candy Summerhays, have the square necklines and puffy sleeves, although they are wearing school uniforms.” “Emma! A Pop Musical” features 24 kids, including Kasey Kirklen as Emma, Katie Lobrot as Harriett, Jack Sheehan as Jeff Knightley, Josephine Nuebecker as Jane Fairfax, Marcello Caro as Frankie Churchill and Calder McEneanny as Philip Elton. “I’ve known most of these kids since I started working with YouTheatre five-and-ahalf years ago,” Wilcox said. “It’s so much fun to watch them grow into these roles. It’s fun to watch those transformations. I also love getting to know the kids. They are so talented and it’s fun to be part of it. “One of the things I most enjoy in general is that I do so much administration that this is a way for me to get back into the classroom and work closely with a big group of kids. It energizes me. “ Egyptian Theatre’s YouTheatre will present “Emma!
