Wizard of Oz, Jr. Auditions

Sponsored by the Willow Springs Theatre Guild, and directed by STARS Foundation executive director, Rebecca Peterson!

High School Musical Portraits

I have posted "High School Musical" images on my website http://www.arlenesportraits.com.

At my home page, click on "Gallery" in left column, then select "HS Musical". I've posted the cast and groupings of characters, not any individual orders.

The individual photo orders that have been placed will be ready Friday and I will mail them out. You may forward this email for those you think might be interested, then they must call or email me to place their order. The image number is in white on the photograph. Keep in mind the web images are sized for speed--not the sharpest resolution--and prints will look good.

Thanks for contacting me once again--and congratulations to all on another outstanding production!

"High School Musical" set to run August 8, 9 & 10

From left, Gabrielle Taylor, Hannah Peterson and Tia Copling lead the cast in the Wildcat Cheer for the STARS Foundation production of "Disney's High School Musical, Jr." coming to the Star Theatre stage on August 8.

Ever think that the life and times of Romeo and Juliet are eons in past and totally unrelated to the challenges faced by the modern teenager? Think the battle between teenage gangs of “West Side Story” is relegated to the memories of the boomer generation – far from the challenges of the 21st Century? Think again.

The STARS Foundation has the answers and a unique experience for you. For the past six weeks, 72 members from area high schools and community have been working to let you to experience modern teenage anxiety captured in “Disney’s HIGH SCHOOL Musical.”

The play has been described as the 21st century version of Shakespeare’s romantic/dramatic play “Romeo and Juliet” with music. In this junior version of the hit musical, the cast uses this production to interpret how good friends can influence an entire student body, making the production appropriate for all ages. Though different in their own ways, they help others see their strengths and intermingle with one another. Audience members will be entertained through music and extensive choreography.

Kyler Copling of Mountain Grove and Olivia Woosley of Houston are cast as Troy and Gabriella, the lead teenage roles, and are supported by new local actors and experienced performers from previous STARS theatre productions.

Opening night is Thursday, August 8, at 7:00 p.m., for the first of six performances at the Willow Springs Star Theater. Additional performances are at 6:00 and 8:00 p.m. Friday, August 9, and 2:00, 4:30 and 7:00 p.m. Saturday, August 10.

Call 417-254-3168 to reserve tickets now. Tickets are also on sale at Cabool City Hall, as well as at Gigi’s Nail Salon in Houston.
