December Early Pay Discount

Can you believe it is December already?
Time sure does fly when you are having fun!
Please pay your December fees before Wed. the 9th to get the discount.

Thanksgiving Vacation

There will not be a class held on Wed. Nov. 25th. The School will be closed so we don't have access to the building. Enjoy the holiday and we will see you on Dec. 2nd.
We also had a good number of hats donated! Thanks to everyone who brought in a hat.

We Need Your Help!

We are working hard on costumes and we are in great need of sports caps. If you have any old caps lying around the house we would love for you to donate them to the costume cause. Please bring them to class and I will get you a treat. If you mention that you read it on the blog, I will give you an extra one. We will use these as the base for Winkie hats and tree hats, so we will need quite a few. Thanks again!

Get the early pay discount!

Class fees for Nov. are due. To get the early pay discount pay before the 11th.
Thanks

Spotlight Of The Week Oct 14th

These video clips are from last week. Sorry for the delay, I had a bit of problem with my camera (it hasn't been quite the same since it went for a swim on a scout trip).

Keeping Students Well

We had a few children absent today because of sickness. Please don't send your child to class if they have cough, runny nose, etc. We will miss them, but we would rather not pass sickness around the class. We will make sure they catch up on what they missed in class.

School Performances

We have a couple of school performances scheduled and have some classes from Canyon, East Meadows, and Riverview coming to see the show. All teachers should have received an e-mail with the information. Please talk to your child's teacher, and encourage them to bring their class or school. It is so much fun to perform for a theatre full of elementary children. If they have any questions please have them call Karma @ 801-494-4730. Thanks!

Performance Dates

We have the performance dates scheduled. The first day on the stage is Wed. Mar. 17th. We will have rehearsals throughout the week ending with a special performance on Tues. Mar. 23rd. Opening Night is Wed. Mar. 24th. School and public performances on Mar. 25th& 26th. Our Final performance will be a matinee on Sat. Mar. 27th. So please mark your calendar now.

class Wednesday Oct 14Th

I have had a lot of people ask if we are having class today and we are! Hope to see you all before you leave town for the long weekend!

Thanks,

Heather

Here it is October Already!

Be sure to pay class fees before Oct. 14th to get the discount. We have also finished casting Munchkinland so scroll down and take a peek.

Spotlight Of The Week "Jitterbug"

Our students are working hard on the Jitterbug number. It is crazy fun, and quite a challenge. The video shows that they are coming along just fine. Thanks again to all who have joined the blog.

We are sooo excited that we have the show cast this far! It was one of the hardest casting I have ever had to do. Your children are so talented, I could have cast it a hundred different ways.
Not all parts are cast yet we will be finishing those in the next couple of weeks.
Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tinman and Lion if you could come to class from 4:00 to 6:00 from now on.

"Munchkins"Munchkinland is one of the most beloved parts in The Wizard of Oz. It is full of colorful little ones, grateful to Dorothy for saving them from the wicked witch. They praise her with singing and dancing, while specialty vignettes shower her with gifts. Munchkinland is a huge part of the Wizard of OZ, and the children involved will have a great theatre experience. Come join us for a good time. This class is for youth ages 5-8. Class time for this group is from 4:00 p.m. to 4:45 p.m. The participation fee will be $40.00 a month, $35.00 if paid before the second class of the month. Plus a $35.00 lab fee, which includes a T-shirt, costume and script rental.

"Wizard of OZ" In this charming production based on the popular L.Frank Baum stories, Dorothy and her dog Toto are caught in a tornado's path and somehow end up in the Land of Oz. Here she meets some memorable friends and foes in her journey to meet the Wizard of Oz, who everyone says can help her return home, and possibly grant her new friends their goals of a brain, heart and courage. Tons of parts are available in this show. Comic Crows, Sassy Trees, Flying Monkeys, Laughing Ozians, Enchanted Winkies, Jazzy Jitterbugs, Handy farm hands, Wacky Wizard and of course Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tinman, Lion and the Wicked Witch, plus lots more. We will also need size appropriate children to be Munchkins along with other parts. The class will focus on singing, dancing and theatre skills.
