Missoula Children's Theater - From Mrs. Jendryka: Missoula Children's Theater company is here today (Monday) and our production is Rumpelstiltskin. Many of you are new to our school since our last performance. Here's what happens: Monday, February 27 is a two hour interactive audition after school. It is open to all students K-8. The students are in a circle, and learn lines, songs and motions and then repeat them in small groups. It is very child friendly and not at all intimidating. After about an hour and a half, depending on the number of students who audition, parts are handed out. The rehearsals begin after auditions for the major roles, mostly older students. They will continue throughout the week, culminating with two performances on Saturday March 4. It is a one week time commitment, but does require full attendance. If your child is in after school sports, I still recommend participating. Most rehearsals will be on conference afternoons. When my daughter participated she would inform her coaches well in advance and they were always willing to accommodate. A staff member will always be present. It is a fantastic opportunity and paid for by Parents Club. Thank you!! Susan Jendryka
