Auditions: To schedule an audition appointment, please email Producer,
Crissi Allen at <mailto:heartacademy@comcast.net> heartacademy@comcast.net.
An audition form/packet will be emailed to you and this must be filled out
before attending auditions. This is not a walk-in audition – you must have
an appointment with us. Walk-ins are not guaranteed a spot since we will
need to close it at 50 students. We already have 23 students auditioning so
do not wait until the last minute!
Encompassing drama, music and movement, this fun drama camp will focus on
developing the ability to communicate through the powerful and multifaceted
tool of theater. We accept beginning, experienced and aspiring actors who
desire to be in a musical stage production and seek to focus on developing
their acting, dancing, and singing skills.
Students will have the opportunity to participate in every aspect of
production; from set design/construction to costumes to makeup and hair to
choreography. In this way, we hope to inspire students to become effective
communicators using various media, there is MUCH more to shows than who is
on stage!
Synopsis of Production – Set in the little village of Anatevka, the story
centers on Tevye, a poor milkman, and his five daughters. With the help of a
colorful and tight-knit Jewish community, Tevye tries to protect his
daughters and instill them with traditional values in the face of changing
social mores and the growing anti-Semitism of Czarist Russia. Rich in
historical and ethnic detail, Fiddler on the Roof’s universal theme of
tradition cuts across barriers of race, class, nationality and religion,
leaving audiences crying tears of laughter, joy and sadness.
