Auditions for The Selfish Giant and Jack An original S.T.A.G.E. Musical October 26 & 27 St. Teresa's Kaczmarek Hall For ages 8-15 years $225 Tuition /see our Tuition package info. below Registration forms for The Selfish Giant will be available at auditions. Do not pay tuition until your child is cast. What is the Selfish Giant and Jack about? Set in a garden, stone walls, garden statues, and the children discuss how the Giant became so very selfish. He does not want to share his beautiful garden with anyone, and prefers to live all alone with a heart made of stone. Jack and his sidekick, Beanstalk, arrive on the scene and steal the giant's heart. It is empty, but Jack works on it for seven long years to warm it up with love. Jack tries to return the heart to the giant, but the giant, who is cruel, captures Jack and has him tried in a Goblin court. "Guilty as Charged" the jury cries out and Jack is banished to live as an ornament in the giant's garden. The North Wind, Hail, and Snow visit and keep the garden as winter and never Spring. Eventually Jack wins the Giant over and his heart is changed for good. A delightful musical, with creative puppetry tied into the effect. The giant is portrayed with dancers and a "magical" eye. Beautiful music and plenty of speaking parts to go around. A comical and rowdy court scene makes for a humorous side to this poetic piece. |

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF STAGE AND WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT THAN OTHER THEATER EXPERIENCES?
The main mission of STAGE is to use the medium of theater (and the arts) to teach about God and the message of love. It is based on the Call to Artists by John Paul II. Our theater team of professional adults, work with this philosophy in order to give the students a full experience of learning about theater, dance, and music, while having the fun of expressing it to others. It gives them an opportunity to hone their art, develop confidence, experience their faith in a lively and productive way, and learn about teamwork in a positive environment that focuses on Godly virtues. S.T.A.G.E. makes every effort to produce a high quality show with superb music and choreography, great costumes, and colorful sets with creative lighting and sound. We pride ourselves on thinking outside the theater box at times, to give the audience a fresh taste of live performance, especially with kids! With over fifteen years under our belt, the STAGE team is committed to providing each student with one on one time to learn their part, along with many group activities to give them a fun, social experience throughout the four weeks, all in the Spirit of S.T.A.G.E.! Come join the fun this summer and be a part of S.T.A.G.E.! Additional questions may be directed to Lee Hotovy at shotovy@msn.com |
