Every year, the members of the Millikan Performing Arts Department, including the Drama, Choral, Dance and Instrumental Music Departments, combine to perform a Broadway musical production. This annual tradition at Millikan can be traced back to at least the 1960’s, and continues to be a strong performance activity today.
