"From the 50 Yard Line"

Post by jazzdad2007 » Wed Jul 30, 2008 10:52 am

The Ayala Band and Color Guard in conjunction with Chino Hills High School Music Program are proud to host the Southern California Premier of “From the 50 Yard Line” on Saturday, August 23, 2008 at 1:00pm and 3:30pm – The film is a moving documentary which tells the emotional marching band story through two high school bands, one, Centerville High School, an Ohio championship show band, the other, Fairfax High School, a Los Angeles band reborn after 18 years of silence due to cutbacks. Travel on an adventure through auditions, band camp, the marching season and the 2006 competitions. See the life-changing effects for these students and the ramifications when music is lost. Learn about the substantial rewards of disciplined practice, the overlooked technical artistry involved, and dispel the misconceptions about band. This is marching band as you have never seen it before: part music video, party reality TV show, part drama, comedy, and full-on entertainment.

Tickets are $8 in advance, and $10 at the door. To order tickets,
