CHILDREN'S STAGE ADVENTURES
Approximately 50 Bethlehem Elementary School children, Kindergarten through Sixth Grade, will be cast to appear in the show with Childen’s Stage Adventures actor/educators Johnny Gordon and Heather Cooperman.
The performances will take place at BES with a 1 pm Dress Rehearsal and a 5 pm Performance on Friday, February 14, 2020. The play begins as a group of hard-working villagers and neighboring forest creatures hail the arrival of the troubadour. The troubadour begins a tale, which magically transports the village back in time. The story comes to life as the young local actors take on the roles of wizards and knights. They will become Sir Ector and his subjects, Morgan Le Fay and her scheming partners, young Arthur, young Kay, and their trusty dog, Cabal. The play continues with forest creatures teaching Cabal lessons about curiosity, Merlin and his apprentice wizards training Arthur to be king, and a group of bandits living in Sherwood Forest showing Kay a thing or two about fairness. A tournament and festival carry the story to its end when Arthur draws the sword from the stone and is crowned King.
Children planning to audition should arrive by the scheduled starting time and plan to stay for the entire two-hour session. No advanced preparation is necessary to take part in the auditions. Rehearsals will be conducted from 8:00 am to 10:00 am and 12:25 pm to 2:25 pm every day of the week prior to the performances. There is no guarantee that everyone who auditions will be cast in the play. Although not all cast members will be needed at every session, those auditioning must have a clear schedule for the entire week, and if selected, be able to attend all rehearsals for their role. A detailed rehearsal schedule will be distributed at the conclusion of the auditions. The first rehearsal will begin about 30 minutes after the auditions. Cast members scheduled to rehearse for the full four hours in one day will be asked to bring a sack meal or snack.
Heather Cooperman, from Columbus, Ohio, and Johnny Gordon, from Westfield, Massachusetts, will be the team of Actor/ Educators from Children’s Stage Adventures.
2019 – ’20 is Children’s Stage Adventures 21st year touring across the northeast US and Canada, with 70+ residencies scheduled. Based in Sullivan, NH, CSA is a non-profit organization supported in part by charitable donations. This coming year hundreds of cast members will take to the stage to the delight and applause of their families, friends, communities, neighbors and teachers.
The residency in Bethlehem is made possible by the Bethlehem Elementary School. Come out and support the youth of your community while enjoying a great show!
