LCAA 2013 Junior Arts Summer Theatre Workshop

“It all starts with Once Upon a Time….”

Summer 2013 will be the sixth year of our very successful and popular Junior Arts Summer Workshop, and this year’s workshop promises to be the biggest and best ever! The play will be an adaptation of the classic tale of The Sleeping Beauty written by Debra Leopard. This full-length play was produced several years ago as a part of the VST season. The tale is based on the story by the Brothers Grimm and has many familiar characters, and some brand new ones. Roles include Briar Rose, the Evil Meanera, the Fairies, Merlin, Ladies in Waiting, Princes, Knights, and even a talking cat and dog. Lots of great roles for both boys and girls! The story has everything… music, comedy, dancing, an evil villain, a hero, a princess and romance. Each actor will have a speaking role and will be given a chance to shine as an individual. Participants in the workshop will audition and are guaranteed a role. Students learn about theatre by participating in a real community theatre play from start to finish. Students will learn about many aspects of theatre including acting techniques, character development, taking direction, and basic theatre terminology. They will be directed by a professional with over 35 years of experience in a quality production. This is the perfect opportunity for young actors of all skill levels to again valuable stage experience! Tuition is $185 plus a non-refundable deposit of $25. Also included are a pizza party and a show t-shirt! Enrollment is limited so don’t delay!

SCHEDULE: Workshop rehearsals are held on Sunday afternoons in the 3:00-6:00 time frame, and on Tuesday and Thursday evenings in the 6:00-9:00 time frame.
