Welcome to Avon’s Junior Musical Theater program’s production of Honk, Jr.
Below you will find some important information about the program.
DATES/TIMES: The program will run for two weeks from June 30 – July 14 from 8:00 – 2:00. We will
not meet on Monday, July 3rd and Tuesday, July 4th.
PERFORMANCE DATE: There will be two performances on Friday, July 14. The first one will be at 10:30
and the second one at 1:30. Doors will open a half hour before the performance.
Performances will be at Avon Middle School in the Cafetorium.
STUDENTS SHOULD: Wear comfortable clothing, sneakers or footwear that is appropriate for
movement and dance. Flip-flops, backless sandals/shoes are strongly
discouraged.
Bring a midmorning snack, lunch and plenty of water/juice. We will be taking
a morning and afternoon break and about 30 minutes for lunch. If possible, I am
asking that you try to avoid giving your child anything that has nuts in it especially
anything with peanuts.
AUDITIONS/CASTING: This year students will be auditioning on either June 28 from 12-2:30 or June 29
from 9:00-11:30. This allows us to start rehearsals right away since we will be
missing two days of rehearsals due to the July 4th holiday weekend. You
should have signed up you son or daughter for one of those days when you
registered for the program. You are welcome to wait while your child auditions.
Please have your child bring with them to the audition his/her audition
form, emergency form, and any days that you would be willing to volunteer
your time to help during rehearsals.
Students will be asked to read a chosen monologue from the sheet I emailed
home, sing a song they have prepared (I have attached the link that Mrs. Harris
has prepared certain songs for each character), and dance a short routine that the
choreographer will teach the group.
Students that are not comfortable singing by themselves can sing with others in a
small group. But please note that we cannot consider them for a lead part if the
child doesn’t sing alone. There are many small solo singing parts in this show
that they may be considered for.
COSTUMES/PROPS: Specific costume and prop needs will be sent home one the show is cast.
DROPOFF/DISMISSAL: We will meet in the chorus room every morning at 8:00. Dismissal will
either be from the chorus room or the cafetorium at 2:00. If your child will be
going home with someone besides a parent, walking home, riding their bike
home, or needs to leave early, please send your child in with a note to that effect
and let one of the directors know.
You are not allowed to park or leave your car unattended in the fire lanes.
EMERGENCY FORM: There will be no nurse on duty during the summer session, therefore it is
imperative that you fill out the form that is attached and have your child
bring it with them on Tuesday, July 5. Any medication sent
to the program must be in the original bottle and clearly labeled with your
child’s full name. Please highlight any food allergies or other allergies.
