Auditions for Children’s Theatre Club’s 2012 summer productions, High School Musical and Once on this Island, will be on June 5th, 6th and 7th from 9am till 5pm at the former Gettysburg Elementary School (260 East Main St. Gettysburg, Ohio). During the audition, members will be asked to perform a scene, a short musical solo from one of the summer musicals (piano accompaniment will be provided) along with a portion of the dance number “We are all in this together” from High School Musical (the dance number will be taught to members during the audition). The exact musical number and scene has been picked by the director, a copy of the scene and musical solo are available by calling 937-547-3360 or at childrenstheatreclub@yahoo.com.
Children’s Theatre Club is a non-profit organization which offers theatre opportunities for area youth in kindergarten through 12th grade. Every member who auditions will be included on stage, and every effort will be made to highlight and give a part to any member who wants one. Members are encouraged to participate in any additional area of Theatre they may have an interest in.
The 1991 Tony nominated musical Once on this Island is loosely based on Hans Christen Anderson’s The Little Mermaid and Romeo and Juliet, this musical tells the story of the young girl Ti Moune as she travels around the island trying to find meaning to her life in a world ruled by social inequality and four temperamental Gods. Featuring such beautiful and upbeat songs as: “Mama will provide”, “Why we tell the story”, and the touching “Ti Moune.” This heartfelt and moving production will be performed in our outdoor space and offers over a hundred parts for cast members.
The second summer production will be the stage version of High School Musical. This popular Disney movie comes to the stage, in the tale of what happens when students breakaway from the stereotypical high school cliques. Including such well known songs as: “Breaking free,” “Stick to the status quo,” “We’re all in this together”, plus a new song not featured in the movie.
Members can choose to participate in either both productions or a single production. Registered members will also be eligible to participate in our summer concerts.
This opportunity for area youth is made possible through community support. Anyone who would like to make a tax-deductible donation to Children’s Theatre Club can do so through our business address at 7474 Fannie Ave. Greenville, Ohio, or contact us for more information.
