Introducing Leading Female BECCA!

Friday, February 12th, 2010

“Becca” began with NSAA Stagekids when she was just a small child.  The first show that she was in was the “WIZARD OF OZ”.   After almost a decade and many, many more shows at NSAA, Becca ended her last Stagekids role as “Dorothy” in the WIZARD OF OZ. 

Becca is returning for NSAA’s 10 year anniversary production of “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” as one of the lead narrators.  This is despite the fact that she is also the lead role at Mequon Homestead High School’s production of “Annie Get Your Gun”.  As if that weren’t enough, she has some other major “out of state” auditions coming up.  “I’m never home,” Becca told us last night.  She works hard and her dreams are big.

Becca is is a shining star of NSAA.  She is a great student, role model, hard-working, ambitious and talented young girl who has an amazing future in front of her.  Keep your eyes on this gal.  She is going places!  And NSAA is glad to have had a part in developing the talents that she exudes today.

Please go see Homestead High School’s “Annie Get Your Gun” Feb. 25-28 then a month later our 10 year Anniversary “Joseph” Production at the Cedarburg Performing Arts Center March 25-28. 

As always, thank you for supporting the arts.  Arts programs build strong leaders such as this fine young lady.

Lead characters include ten year old Sydney Crivello who plays the lead “Aurora/Briar Rose” Sleeping Beauty.  The evil sorceress, Maleficent, played by eight year old Dalin Kirn puts a curse on Sleeping Beauty that she will prick her finger and die on her sixteenth birthday.  However, lead fairy “Merryweather” played by nine year old Elizabeth Schmid casts a spell that will simply make her fall asleep only to be awoken by her true love’s kiss.  Six year old Xavier Robar, “Prince Philip” comes to the rescue and kisses her out of her sleep.  However, this is the beginning of a big duel between Maleficent’s “Goons” and “Merryweather’s” fairies.
