Alaska Junior Theater Announces LET'S DO IT LIVE Season Beginning Next Week

Alaska Junior Theater will begin their Let's Do It Live 2022/2023 Season by bringing the magic of bucket filling to Anchorage youth this November with Have You Filled A Bucket Today - The Musical (K - 5).

This brand new, fun-filled musical from Virginia Repertory Theatre is based on the concepts in Carol McCloud's award-winning children's books, Have You Filled a Bucket Today?, Growing Up with a Bucket Full of Happiness and Ann Marie Gardinier Halstead's book, The Bucket Filling Fairy.

The books and play use the concept of a "bucket" to show students how to express kindness, appreciation and love to be "bucket-fillers." The play focuses on the benefits of positive, thoughtful behavior. Have you Filled a Bucket Today: The Musical! relays the joys of friendship and compassion for both the receiver and the giver.

The aim of the play is to help teach students to be bucket-fillers rather than bucket-dippers with this musical performance designed to promote healthy relationships, self-esteem, and bring character education front and centerstage at your school.

Themes of the performance include Family Ties, Language Arts, Music, Prevention, Self-Esteem and Character Development.

School performances of Have You Filled A Bucket Today - The Musical will be held Nov 3 - 4 at 10:00 AM and 11:45 AM in the Atwood Concert Hall at the Alaska Center for the Performing Arts. No public performances will be held for this event.
