Phantom Tollbooth (7- 12 yrs)

Musical Theater (7- 12 yrs)

Norton Juster’s beloved children’s book is given full musical treatment in this acclaimed stage version of the modern tale of a boy who must save the princesses Rhyme and Reason and reunite the brother Kings who rule over the cities of Dictionopolis and Digi-topolis. Aided by a trusty time-keeping dog, Tock, Milo successfully brings harmony to the Land of Wisdom and learns many things about words and numbers along his journey. Perhaps the most important lesson he takes with him, however, is that everything we learn has a purpose and actions have consequences. When he returns home, he realizes there is never a reason to be bored in a world full of so many things to discover. Performance: 1/25 & 1/26. Cast party last week of class

Five-week workshops include training in acting, dance, and singing. Students learn several songs from each musical, choreographed dance numbers, simple dialogue and perform a small show for friends and families. DVD given to each student. 5 classes. No class 11/26.
