Fifty five southeastern Wisconsin children, ages 6 to 11, will be presenting the musical ANNIE Kids on December 5 at 5pm and 7pm. The musical will be about 45 minutes long and held at the North Shore Academy of the Arts (NSAA), 1111 Broad Street Grafton, WI. Admission is free and open to the public however donations will be collected at the door.
The musical consists of two casts. The “Green Cast” will perform at 5pm and contains thirty three cast members. The “Purple Cast” will perform at 7pm and contains twenty two cast members.
The NSAA Jr. Stagekids Program is directed by Angela Mack who is also the Marketing Director for NSAA. “The Jr. Stagekids program is part of a spiraling and growing musical curriculum at NSAA. Typically children enter through our Pre-K “Imagine Me” program, move onto “Stage-Kinder-Kids”, then Jr. Stagekids, Stagekids and all the way up to the adult level,” said Mack who has also played “Motormouth Maybelle” in Hairspray and “Narrator” in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat at the Cedarburg Performing Arts Center (CPAC).
Pictured above is the “Green Cast” Annie played by 4th grader Claire Holtebeck. “Claire has been singing, dancing and acting since she could move and speak,” commented her mom Lisa. “In her free time, she makes up commercials and videotapes herself for YouTube. Claire also loves playing soccer and hanging with friends and family. She is VERY excited to be a part of ‘Annie’–a lifelong dream!”
The “Purple Cast” Annie is played by an eight year old Greta Dane from Cedarburg (pictured above). Greta was also recently cast as the lead in a traveling theater group based out of Milwaukee, WI. “Greta is a pretty amazing kid…I have raised her to believe that she can do anything she wants if she puts her mind to it and I have yet to see her prove me wrong. She loves to sing and spends time composing her own songs. She also plays and loves piano and got an electric guitar for her 8th birthday last month which she is slowly teaching herself how to play. Her role as Annie is her first shot at acting”, said her mom Sharon.
NSAA is now registering for their 2012 productions which include Stagekids Seussical (target ages 2nd through 8th grade), Aladdin Kids, Willy Wonka Kids and a brand new 30-minute comedy for the middle schooled called “School Daze”. Online registration and discounts are now being offered on the NSAA website. www.northshoreacademyofthearts.org

Thousands competed. But ten year old Liora Bushee won the award for the National Menorah Essay Contest. This incredible win landed her near the White House giving a speech to an audience of thousands. The event was covered by CNN and can be seen 17 minutes into the video on this website.
Liora presented her speech, titled “Light” on the first day of Chanukah for the Annual Menorah Lighting Ceremony in Washington DC on Dec. 1.
She confidently spoke, “Light can easily overcome darkness. The darkness is the bad and mean things in this world and light is happiness and joy.
You can read the rest of her essay HERE.
Liora has participated in several shows through the NSAA Jr. Stagekids program. The goal of the Jr. Stagekids program is:
For those children who love to act, sing, and dance…this class is for you! Make friends and build self-confidence while learning to deliver lines, act in character, sing and perform choreographed moves!
We are very happy that Liora had the confidence and bravery to speak in front of such a large audience with clarity, feeling and perfect timing.
You see, we do more than just put on shows. Our Peforming Arts Department helps DEVELOP LEADERS. It’s our desire to develop “the leader within” each and every student….

About “Schoolhouse Rock Live!”
“The Emmy Award-winning 1970s Saturday morning cartoon series that taught history, grammar, math, science and politics through clever, tuneful songs is not only making a small-screen comeback, instructing a whole new generation to “Unpack Your Adjectives” and “Do The Circulations,” it’s lighting up stages everywhere, from school multi-purpose rooms to university and regional theatres all around the country. Tom, a nerve-wracked school teacher nervous about his first day of teaching, tries to relax by watching TV when various characters representing facets of his personality emerge from the set and show him how to win his students over with imagination and music, through such beloved Schoolhouse Rock songs as “Just A Bill,” “Lolly, Lolly, Lolly” and “Conjunction Junction.” — taken from http://www.schoolhouserocklive.net/
SHOW TIMES: 5pm “Green Cast” and 7pm “Purple Cast” (each show lasts about 45 minutes)
SHOW DATE: Monday December 13
SHOW VENUE: North Shore Academy of the Arts, 1111 Broad Street, Grafton WI
