FSPA SLATES AUDITIONS FOR SUMMERSTAGE PRODUCTION OF SHREK THE MUSICAL

The Franklin School for the Performing Arts (FSPA) will hold placement auditions for the SummerStage 2013 production of Shrek the Musical on Saturday, May 11. The annual SummerStage musical theater program features a new extended one-week format and will culminate in two performances at Showcase Live at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro. SummerStage is open to students in grades 3-12 and runs from July 8-13 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., with performances at 2 and 6 p.m. on Saturday, July 13. There also will be two jumpstart dates for the SummerStage cast on June 12 and 15.

Auditions on May 11 are for placement purposes only; all SummerStage students will be cast in the full-length production, a stage musical adaptation of the smash-hit animated movie. All ages will be considered for all roles. Auditions will be held at 1:30 for grades 3-5, 2:15 for grades 6-8, and 3:00 for grades 9 and up. Please prepare 16 measures of a musical theater song. Students also will be asked to dance a simple combination taught at the audition. Additional auditions will be scheduled by appointment for anyone unable to attend on May 11.

In addition to the SummerStage program, FSPA also will offer an eight-week session of voice, instrumental and dance classes, running from June 25 to August 16. Students may register for the entire session or take classes for select weeks, with pro-rated tuition. The School’s Ballet Conservatory will feature two Summer Ballet Intensives: Summer Session I for the Pre-Professional Division from July 15-August 1 and Summer Session II for the Young Dancer Division from August 12-23.

FSPA’s roster of one-week performing arts camps includes Camp GLEE, Dance Camp, Contemporary Dance Styles Camp, Broadway Camp and Acting Camp, as well as Little Gems Ballet Camp, Creative Kids Camp and Little Music School Experience for younger children. Creative two- and three-day workshops include FlashMob Fun, Rock Out, Up Your Game and Vocal Styles.
