STARS lessons and classes will be in session today... HOWEVER, please be aware that both the STARS building and the Peterson residence face north, and have ice on the walkways that is still too solid to be broken at this time. PLEASE PROCEED WITH CAUTION!! Also, anyone having lessons at the Peterson residence, please DO NOT try to park in the driveway, as it is also a solid sheet of ice. If you decide that you do not want to risk coming to class today, you will not be penalized for absence today. Thank you - and be safe.

Little Mermaid Cast List

Attention: The following is not the final cast list. This is an outline to get us started. CREW A will meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7:30-8:30. CREW B Will only attend on Thursday rehearsals until further notice. All understudies do not need to attend their understudy part at this time. If your child is under the age of 6 you can attend at your discretion; if needed they can wait until the latter part of March. I will announce what we will be working on each week. It is suggested that you allow your child to practice the songs that we will be working on so they become familiar with them. They can be found on our theater face book page. Thank you for participating.
