A student written and performed musical journey, exploring what happens when two young people try to escape reality. Evan and Rachel are sick of it all. Sick of the pandemic. Sick of masks. Sick of restrictions. Sick of family and no travel. They decide - enough. They're going to get in the car and just go. Where? Who knows, but they're going to drive until they escape 2020-2021. What happens next is a fantastical journey into past and future, fantasy and reality, relationships and whimsy. Come join Odessa College's first return to LIVE theatre in 2021 with our student devised and performed production! Seats are limited to a 25% house and masks are REQUIRED.

The idea is the brainchild of the Midland High Head Orchestra Director, Nikesha Hailey-Hicks who recalled an event in 2001 she attended where the musicians all wore blue jeans and played the music of Beethoven. By melding classical music with fun fiddle tunes, students in denim, and a good ol' Bar B-Q meal Beethoven and Blue Jeans has become a tradition for the Midland High School Orchestra. Beethoven and Blue Jeans is a community event to show gratitude for all the support that the orchestra continues to receive year after year.
