FALL 2011: Spotlight (ages 10-14)

Spotlight CLASS HAS BEGUN
Dear Edwina, Jr.
Music by Zina Goldrich
Book and Lyrics by Marcy Heisler

Edwina Spoonapple is the foremost "expert" on advice...at least, in Paw Paw, Michigan. And within her own garage. As fellow neighborhood kids file to Edwina's for her weekly advice show, they assume their normal roles of her production staff. But when a talent scout is rumored to show up this week, Edwina soon finds she can dish out the counsel...but can she follow it herself? Hysterical production numbers mixed with heartfelt empathy make for a remarkable combination in this Drama Desk-nominated musical.

This class teaches 10 to 14 year-olds advanced harmony, choreography, and character development. Spotlight is our students first introduction to working with a voice coach and musical director.

IMPORTANT PARENT INFORMATION, PLEASE READ:
Parent participation through volunteering is important to Town Hall Kids programs. This course requires parents to complete at least one volunteer job. You may select which job you would like to sign up for at the Parent/Teacher meeting, which is held at the end of the first day of class. These jobs vary in time required and involvment, but none will keep you from seeing your child's performance.

You may "opt-out" of volunteering by bringing a $30.00 check made payable to Town Hall Theatre Company to the Parent/Teacher meeting.

Beginning Fall 2011: scripts and music for class will be provided via email before the first class.  Please print and bind the script and have your child bring it to the first day of class. Copies of scripts are no longer provided in class.
