movement. Actors will be introduced to musical theater and engage in a 
work of comedy. All participants will perform in a comedy, a musical 
play or work backstage if preferred. Instruction will also include how 
casting works; auditioning for parts, theatre etiquette and students 
will learn how to create sets, work with props, the roles behind the 
scenes and much more! Under the direction Kelly Clark, classes will be

The Comedy
*CASEY AT THE BAT
Adapted by Noah Smith
Based on the poem by Ernest L. Thayer

Mudville's star slugger, the Mighty Casey, has struck out and now 
Mudville has one chance left to win the series. But millionaire Bob 
Evilman bribes Casey to lose the final game. Jimmy Blake, a young rookie 
on the team, overhears this and vows to win without Casey. Can he do it? 
This easy-to-stage play has a wonderful moral about hard work, honesty 
and team playing, but it's never preachy. It incorporates much of the 
famous poem with lots of action (in some cases fast forward!), lots of 
humor and optional dialogue. It's sure to score a home run with young 
audiences. *Pending Rights


The Musical
GIANTS IN THE SKY
Music & Lyrics by Denver Casado
Book & Lyrics by     Kerry Kazmierowicztrimm

This magical story explores the world of Giants who live above the 
clouds. Ever since they left Earth a long time ago, the Giants have made 
a life up above where their job is to keep the sky beautiful. They 
polish the stars, poke the clouds to let it rain and paint the sunsets. 
But there is one curious Giant who wonders what life is like on Earth, 
so she steals a key to the locked up “beanstalk” and embarks on an 
adventure down below!
