We’re bringing together our (slightly) older theatermakers ages 11 through 15 (rising 6th – 9th graders) for an incredible 2-week Playhouse Players summer experience. Students will gather daily to level up their acting, singing, and dancing skills with top-notch instructors, all culminating in a showstopping final performance of 13 JR. There’s no better way to spend your summer than with your friends at the Playhouse.
With a catchy rock score from Tony Award-winning composer, Jason Robert Brown, (Parade, The Last Five Years, The Bridges of Madison County) and a hilarious book by Tony winner Robert Horn (Tootsie, Shucked) and Dan Elish (13), 13 JR. tells a timeless story about fitting in – and standing out!
Evan Goldman is plucked from his fast-paced, preteen New York City life and plopped into a sleepy Indiana town following his parents’ divorce. Now the new kid at school, he needs to establish his place in the popularity pecking order. Can he situate himself on a comfortable link of the food chain… or will he dangle at the end with the outcasts?!?
Note: No class on July 4th
