The play consists of an ensemble cast. Even if you think your child has a small part, they are a significant part of the play. Their absence affects the entire cast. Please do your best to ensure that your child is present for every rehearsal for which they are called. If your child has to miss a rehearsal, please notify us as soon as possible. More than three (3) absences may result in a student’s lines being reassigned to another actor and/or removal from the play.

At Arts Alive! we pride ourselves on challenging your kids, but we also take age appropriateness seriously. That’s why we license “Kids” and “Jr” versions of the plays we produce. Kids and Jr versions of plays are not the same as what you see on Broadway, or what you might remember from the movies. Broadway choreography is too difficult for elementary and middle school students, so the dances are simplified. Likewise, the music is changed to accommodate young voices that cannot yet hit all the notes you hear from seasoned theatre professionals. 

At Arts Alive! we pride ourselves in being able to provide our families well-organzied play programs with safe and efficient processes. After registration for our programs closes we have a very short amount of time to prepare for our staff, schools, and families for the next step of auditions and rehearsals. Please note, we do not accept late registrations; as such, if you miss the registration deadline you will be added to a waitlist. The allowance of late-registration from the waitlist will be subject to availability. Please be aware any inquires for late registrations should be made through Arts Alive! and not the schools or PTOs. Please contact [email protected] with any questions.

At Arts Alive! we ask that all children involved in our school play programs, end Grade and up participate in an informal, fun and low-pressure audition. Our professional Directors evaluate actors based on their voices, movement, and personality. Our Directing Team then spends many hours considering each child as an individual to detemine which role they are best suited for which will allow them to shine in the performance. We are very grateful that you trust your kids with us as they learn, develop, and hopefully build a life-long love of the performing arts. Please note that all casting decisions are final and will not be changed after the cast list has be released. PLEASE NOTE: Complaints regarding casting will not be responded to. Please help to remind your child that there are no small parts and that the ensemble is just as important as a lead role. Our focus is teamwork and providing each child an opportunity to grow as an individual.
