Many South Side Middle School students collaborated and performed in the school’s successful production of the Rodgers and Hammerstein Broadway musical “State Fair,” about the life of the farming Frake family and their three-day adventure at the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines in 1946. The middle school production was presented on May 17 and 19.
