Welcome to Avon’s Junior Musical Theater program’s production of Annie, Jr. Below you will find some important information about the program.
DATES/TIMES: The program will run for two weeks from July 1 – July 12 from 8:30 – 2:30 at TBS.
We will not meet on Thursday, July 4th. and Friday, July 5th.
PERFORMANCE DATE: There will be two performances on Friday, July 12. The first one will be at 10:30
and the second one at 1:30. Doors will open a half hour before the performance.
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 mid-morning 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: You should have signed up for your child to audition on one of the scheduled
audition dates on either June 27 from 12-2:30 or June 28 from 9:00-11:30 when
you registered. This allows us to start rehearsals right away instead of to take
the first two days for auditions. You are welcome to wait while your child
auditions. It is possible that auditions will end earlier than scheduled. Please
have your child bring with them to the audition his/her audition form with
a recent picture if possible,
If would be willing to volunteer your time to help during a rehearsal or
backstage during a performance, please circle the date at the bottom of
the audition form.
Students will be asked to read a chosen monologue from the monologue sheet
sing a song they have prepared (Mrs. Harris will be providing a link to
the music that she has prepared with 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.
Because we only have 8 days to put this show together I am asking that your child be at all rehearsals. Please schedule appointments after 2:30. This is only a two week program and we need all cast members at all rehearsals.
COSTUMES/PROPS: Our costumer will send home specific costume and prop needs once the show is cast.
DROPOFF/DISMISSAL: We will first meet in the chorus room every morning at 8:30. Dismissal will
either be from the chorus room or the gym at 2:30. Your child will meet you in
the front lobby. 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.
Please park in the parking lot and come inside to get your child in the
lobby. Please be prompt in picking up your child. I wait until the last child
is picked up and I don’t want to have to wait to much past 2:30. I have
other commitments after the program that I need to get to. Thank you for
your cooperation.
EMERGENCY FORM: There will be no nurse on duty during the summer session, therefore it is imperative that you fill out the form given to your child at auditions and have your child bring it with them on July 1. 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.
