Andrew Minkin is a sixteen year old from Mequon who became involved with the North Shore Academy of the Arts (NSAA) when he was in 3rd grade. Since then, he has been in at least nine NSAA productions.
Recently, Andrew played the lead role of Pippin in Homestead High School’s Pippin. This year, the regional Solo Ensemble competition was held at Homestead High School. Andrew sang three solos and was in five ensembles. Of those eight songs, Andrew received seven “One Stars” which is the highest rating that can be obtained.
Some of his solos included “Corner of the Sky” from Pippin, “Bright is the Ring of Words” by Von Williams and “Pie Jesu” by Bethany Zamora.
Andrew continues to be an asset to NSAA as a volunteer in the performing arts and marketing departments. Currently, he is assisting as a vocal coach and director’s assistant in NSAA’s Stagekids Production of Seussical. Andrew also works at The Rave/Eagles Club in Milwaukee as a marketing assistant promoting Rap shows and working with their booking agent.
Andrew would like to pursue musical theater as an actor after high school. He has been looking at Oklahoma University as well as Boise State University. He is currently auditioning for the Sound of Music at the Skylight Musical Theatre in Milwaukee.
NSAA is proud of Andrew and the leader that he has become and wishes him success in all that he does. We see a bright future for him! Imagine…Discover…Create…Dream Andrew!

Photo Opportunity: November 21 or November 28 between 5pm and 7:30pm, 1111 Broad Street Grafton WI
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

GRAFTON, WI
The North Shore Academy of the Arts (NSAA) is proud to announce its 2012 adult and youth production, “The Music Man”. Previous musicals performed by NSAA at the Cedarburg Performing Arts Center (CPAC) include Hairspray and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
NOW REGISTERING for CAST MEMBERS
Interested cast members can register online through the NSAA website.
ABOUT “The Music Man”
An affectionate paean to Smalltown, U.S.A. of a bygone era, Meredith Willson’s THE MUSIC MAN follows fast-talking traveling salesman Harold Hill as he cons the people of River City, Iowa into buying instruments and uniforms for a boys’ band he vows to organize – this despite the fact he doesn’t know a trombone from a treble clef. His plans to skip town with the cash are foiled when he falls for Marian the librarian, who transforms him into a respectable citizen by curtain’s fall.
