Rare is the eleven-year-old whose biggest dream in life is to direct a musical. Get to know JJ House, though, and it is easy to see why such an uncommon dream perfectly suits this unique boy. Suffering with 36 broKen Bones from birth, JJ's life experiences endeared him to the world of theatre. Enter MTVarts, an audience-driven, non-profit theatre in JJ's hometown of Mount Vernon, OH. They created the JJ Project to provide an unforgettable directorial debut for JJ. He chose the musical HOW I BECAME A PIRATE.
"When the JJ Project came to our attention, we immediately saw the opportunity to help. I assigned our TRW Partnership Team and contacted MTVarts producer Janis Stone to ask how we could become involved," said Steve Spiegel, President & CEO of TRW. JJ's production of HOW I BECAME A PIRATE at MTVarts will open on September 28, 2013 at the Memorial Theatre in Mount Vernon.
