The 30-minute production marks the first-ever collaborative show between the two programs, highlighting the combined talents of Oxford\u2019s theatre and orchestra students.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Oxford High School Orchestra, under the direction of <strong>Ceresa Caudill<\/strong>, began preparing the string pieces in August. Theater students, under the leadership of <strong>John Davenport<\/strong>, are bringing the story to life on stage, with production support from Jordan Caviezel. Additionally, it features narration by <strong>Dr. Jonathan Caudill<\/strong>, joined by local musicians and educators from the Oxford community, including participants from the <strong>University of Mississippi<\/strong> and <strong>Mississippi State University<\/strong>, on the wind, brass, and percussion parts.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Families are invited to attend this special performance celebrating music, theater, and the spirit of collaboration.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information and tickets, visit&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/oxfordhs.booktix.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">oxfordhs.booktix.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/TheLocalVoiceLigature-25web.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"25\" height=\"16\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/TheLocalVoiceLigature-25web.jpg?resize=25%2C16\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14544\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/PeterWolf.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"990\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/PeterWolf.png?resize=640%2C990&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-153241\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/PeterWolf.png?w=662&amp;ssl=1 662w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/PeterWolf.png?resize=194%2C300&amp;ssl=1 194w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Oxford High School Theatre and Orchestra programs present\u00a0Peter and the Wolf: A Symphonic Tale for Children\u00a0next Thursday<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":238,"featured_media":153241,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[15944],"tags":[32979,31787,32982,25795,5,13149,1298,4,1135,32981,32978,32980,7080,655],"class_list":["post-153240","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-local-theatre","tag-ava-h-bonds-auditorium","tag-ceresa-caudill","tag-dr-jonathan-caudill","tag-john-davenport","tag-mississippi","tag-mississippi-state-university","tag-orchestra","tag-oxford","tag-oxford-high-school","tag-oxford-high-school-orchestra","tag-oxford-high-school-theatre","tag-sergei-prokofiev","tag-theatre","tag-university-of-mississippi"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/PeterWolf.png?fit=662%2C1024&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153240","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/238"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=153240"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153240\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":153242,"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153240\/revisions\/153242"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/153241"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=153240"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=153240"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=153240"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
