Students pack the house at WWUsical premiere

Western Washington University students packed into Fraser Hall Room 4 Thursday night to watch the premiere of KVIK's “WWUsical.”

The film, based on the popular "High School Musical," is the first musical produced by KVIK, the WWU Associated Students television station.

The musical's description, courtesy of the KVIK Web site:

"The talented and athletic Trey is accepted to Western's football team. However, since we really don't care, the story follows his emo girlfriend Kira, who deals with the loss of her close friend, while Trey manipulates her emotions and uses her unscrupulously for his musical theater exploits. Literally friends with Death, Kira contemplates suicide while the ruthless theater sibling-duo Sharpie and Ron try to murder her. Warm and optimistic, the WWUsical is a delightfully light piece of musical entertainment for the whole family."
