Dear Parents,

We are excited to begin an after school theater group for 3rd through 6th grade students. Theatre practice will begin October 16th and will be held every Wednesday and Thursday after school from 3:05-4pm. In the spring we will perform “Annie, Jr.” the musical combined with junior high students. We will need both boys and girls for orphans as well as other roles.

Students must commit to being at every scheduled rehearsal and performance date (listed below) as every member is needed for a successful practice and performance! Auditions will be held as part of class in a group setting and every member of theatre will be given a part. Parts range from chorus (no speaking roles) to speaking parts, and vocal solos. I will do my best to help each child feel comfortable in the role they have been given.

Students will be responsible for providing their own costumes after roles are assigned. Since most elementary students will be playing a role of an orphan (both boys and girls), I recommend shopping at Deseret Industries or finding old, worn out, second hand clothing as costumes. Keep in mind that this play is set in the Great Depression time period (about 1933) in New York. Hope to see your student there!

Practice Dates – Every Wednesday and Thursday from 3:05pm – 4pm starting October 16th

Performance Dates – April 22nd and 23rd at 5:30pm
