NSAA Stagekids Present Disney’s Beauty and the Beast Jr. January 20-23 
 
NSAA Stagekids will present Disney’s Beauty and the Beast Jr. at the Cedarburg Performing Arts Center (CPAC) January 20-23.  The 12:30pm matinee on 1/20 is already sold out leaving a 9:30am matinee on 1/20.

 
Other show times include 7pm on 1/21, 1pm and 7pm on 1/22 and 1pm on 1/23.  Tickets cost just $3 per child and $7 per adult.  The CPAC ticket box office number is 262.376.6161.  (Someone is usually in the box office M-F between 3 and 6pm.)
 
This time around, the leads will have a huge challenge.  Two casts (red and yellow) will be performing.  Each cast has a set of “leads”.  During the leads’ “off shows”, they will perform as chorus members.  Thus, all of our leads will be learning and performing two roles during the course of the weekend.  (This set-up is new to NSAA Stagekids.)

 The casts are made up of 75 kids total from the Southeastern WI region ranging between the ages of 5 and 14.  NSAA has also partnered up with the Schauer Arts and Activities Center in Hartford, WI to present the same show at their location January 14 and 15 with an entirely separate “Hartford” cast.

 
NSAA Stagekids has been around for ten years and has produced at least two major shows per year.  Debbie Knuth has recently been promoted to the position of Stagekids Community Coordinator and Angela Mack has been promoted to the position of Stagekids Marketing Director.

 
NSAA has recently expanded by offering performing arts opportunities to adults.  Our last 2010 Spring adult/youth production of “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” was a huge success.  Our 2011 Spring adult/youth production will be “Hairspray”.  Auditions will be February 2 at NSAA (must pre-register).

 
We will be taking registrations for our next Stagekids Production of “Camp Rock” at the Beauty and the Beast shows.  Auditions will be held on January 31 at NSAA (must preregister).   Details on how to register can be found on our website http://www.northshoreacademyofthearts.org
