Half Day Groups

 Who can answer your Half Day questions?




  • Shelby Oveson - Half Day Coordinator
  • Ximena Bailey - Stage Manager
  • Jacqueline Vuki - Director
  • Andrea Fife - Pre-Show Music Director
If you're enrolled in the Half Day program this summer, you're audition will determine your placement in one of four groups with different skills to learn and strengths to show off.  Take a look at all the excitement we have planned!

"Swingin' in the Sun" (Preshow)
Nothing Could Be Finer - All Groups (with individual features for every group)
Chickery Chick - Kathy's Girls and Broadway Baes
Frim Fram Sauce - Stagehands and Students
Raining Sunshine - All groups (opportunities for solos)
This Is It - All groups (opportunities for speaking parts)

STAGE HANDS



We are looking for talented boys and girls who have great comedic timing and a strong stage presence.  The Stage Hands will perform "Make Em Laugh" in the main production and will have many featured moments in this year's "Swingin' in the Sun" preshow.

STUDENTS



A mixed-gender group of students will bring us "Moses Supposes," one of the iconic songs from Singin' in the Rain.  This group will have to be able to handle challenging rhythms, and some strong sopranos will be a must.  They'll join the Stage Hands for "Frim Fram Sauce" as well has many other moments of the preshow.

KATHY'S GIRLS

Kathy's Girls will need to be top-notch dancers who can also hold a two-part harmony between them.  Performing "All I Do Is Dream of You," this all-girl group will bring sequins and glam to the stage.  They will also have chances to show off their vocal prowess in the preshow numbers.  I wouldn't be surprised if many of the "Raining Sunshine" soloists come from this group.

BROADWAY BAES

This group is made up of boys and girls who put Broadway before anything and have the skills to prove it.  They'll have a chance to be featured on an aerial hoop, tap dancing, and more.  But don't forget... this is Broadway (not a dance concert), so they'll need to be able to sing strong harmonies, too.  They will join Kathy's Girls to perform the three-part harmony number "Chickery Chick" as well as other preshow numbers.

GET READY!
Now that you know what there is to go for, start perfecting those audition songs!  Come to a tap workshop!  We're excited to see where your skills can shine.

  1. Hey Guys! Have I totally missed any opportunity to sign up Olivia for the summer youth show? If so, do you have any more coming up?
