ABOUT THE CAMP …
This is going to be a two week long camp that ends with three performances at the Limestone Community School. The rehearsals will take place at 7 Russ Street.
This camp is going to be taught by award winning high schoolers with years of theatre & dance experience. They will be taking the lead in teaching the campers the blocking, dancing and singing as well as designing the show behind the scenes. Each high schooler will be advised by an adult to offer advice, as needed.
The camp will run from Sunday, July 28- Saturday, August 10.
The rehearsals will be broken up in two levels:
For students going into grades 1st-3rd, they are the Rising Star campers and will rehearse from 10am-2pm - the fee will be $100 for the camp. Click here to sign up a rising star (auditions open May 1st)
(If you are signing up a rising star, but are unable to pick up your camper at 2pm, you may also register them for the afternoon session stage crew from 2pm-5pm for $25.)
For students going into grades 4th-10th, they are the Junior Players campers and will rehearse from 10am-4pm — the fee will be $150 for the camp. Click here to sign up a junior player (registration opens May 1st)
At the end of the week, all the campers will perform three fully staged public performances:
Friday at 7pm (Red Cast)
Saturday @ 2pm (White Cast)
Saturday @ 7pm (Red Cast)
There will be two casts of Beauty and the Beast Junior, which will rehearse simultaneously.

ABOUT THE AUDITIONS …
Because of the quick rehearsal process, the show will be fully cast before July 28th.
Please note: for this camp, auditions are only required for campers who are not participating in Mary Poppins Junior.
Starting May 1st - May 31st, we will accept video audition submissions — each camper will be required to send in a video singing and reading a side from Beauty and the Beast Jr. Please visit our audition page to read through the roles available. Each role has the breakdown, a couple of pages of the script and a song and the number of lines each role has — take this into consideration before picking the role to audition for. Please memorize the lines and a part of the song. If the role your camper is auditioning for doesn’t sing a solo, the only requirement is the acting portion of the audition.
The cast will be announced by early June — at this point, every camper will receive an email with the script and all the songs, along with more information on how the camp will run and all the junior staff and staff. Because of the quick rehearsal process during camp week, we ask that all campers come to camp on July 28th already OFF-BOOK (knowing all their lines and songs) to allow for a smooth rehearsal process. This will help take the pressure off the campers from having to memorize their lines and songs while also learning the dances and blocking in rehearsals.
Please note: if you send in your audition tape after May 31st, your child will not be considered for a leading role, but we will add you to the ensemble of your age group.
BEFORE YOU AUDITION …
Because of the very quick rehearsal process, if you accept a role in Beauty and the Beast Junior, every rehearsal is MANDATORY.
If you have ANY conflicts during the weeks of July 28th - August 10th, we won’t be able to cast you in a lead role. If your conflict is minor, you could potentially still be considered for the ensemble. There will be no exceptions to this. Thank you for understanding.
Please understand the time commitment we are expecting of you and your child BEFORE you send in the audition video.
ABOUT THE SHOW …
The classic story tells of Belle, a young woman in a provincial town, and the Beast, who is really a young prince trapped under the spell of an enchantress. If the Beast can learn to love and be loved, the curse will end and he will be transformed to his former self. But time is running out. If the Beast does not learn his lesson soon, he and his household will be doomed for all eternity.
With many fun supporting roles allowing students to play objects inside the castle, this "tale as old as time" is filled with spectacular costume and set opportunities.
