DESCRIPTION:Augustana College will present spring opera scenes: "Songs For a New World" at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 21-22\, directed by Michelle Crouch with stage direction by Maureen Holmes.\n\nThe work of musical theatre by Jason Robert Brown&nbsp\;first was&nbsp\;produced off-Broadway&nbsp\;in 1995.

It's about hitting the wall and having to make a choice\, or take a stand\, or turn around and go back."\n\nThe cast includes Ariela Policastro\, Katie Griswold\, Cami Myers\,&nbsp\;Izzy Bartscher\,&nbsp\;Ryan J. Hurdle\,&nbsp\;AJ Weber\, Brycen Witt and&nbsp\;Brian Heffernan\n\nMusicians are&nbsp\;Mitchell Carter\, percussion\;&nbsp\;Pete Philhower\, drums\; Devon White\, bass\;&nbsp\;and&nbsp\;Michelle Crouch\, piano.\n\nZach Myatt is in charge of lights\;&nbsp\;Gabe Ziegler\, sound\; and&nbsp\;Emily Keiner\, stage manager.\n\nProgram\n\nAct I\n\n1.
