Signup for the fall season — and the first rehearsal — is on Monday, August 29, from 4–6 PM, at the studio at 416 College Street. If your child is interested in being in the fall show, which will be Oliver, please have them come to sign up that night. Also, spread the word to anyone else you may know who is interested. The fee is $100.00 for the season.

Rehearsals are Mondays and Thursdays from 4–6 PM, with the exception of Labor Day (Monday, September 5). The Labor Day rehearsal will be moved to Tuesday, September 6.

The second annual fundraising dinner, An Evening on Broadway, will be held on Sunday, September 18 from 4:30–7 PM. Anyone who was involved in last year’s dinner, An Evening in Italy, will remember what an amazing event it was! We are ready to do it again, but will need lots of help!  On Monday, August 8, at 5:30 PM we will have a planning meeting. At that time, we will stuff and label the invitations, hand out posters and discuss the other details and work assignments for the event.  Please RSVP if you can attend.  If you can’t attend, but can help in even a small way as we lead up to the event, please let us know.  Thank you!
