JJ Flynn Theatre Presents: Narnia   Performances March 22-24, 2012 
Preparations are underway for this years student production.  The play has been chosen, a grant of $1000 from Ben and Jerry's foundation has been secured to get us off the ground - now we need you!  Any child in grades 4 and 5 can try-out for a spot - all students are guaranteed a role.  Students in grade 3 may be part of the chorus.  The first play production meeting is scheduled for Monday, Dec 5 in the learning center at 6:45.  We will go over the pre-production schedule and start to define committees for the Playbill, Advertising, Green Room, Costumes and Make-Up.  MANY hands make light work and a more enjoyable experience for all.  Please turn out to support your young thespian and all the other parents putting in their precious time - we need you too... 
ALSO - You do not need to have a child in the play to participate - the last 2 years we had parents from K, 1, 2 helping in lead roles - just because....  do you have a desire to help and/or a skill to share?  Reach out to us - come join the team!
Questions can be directed to Sarah Smith at sarah@esptrans.com

Jeh Kulu drumming and dancing residency coming to JJ Flynn after the Holidays.  We are firming up an amended date with Jeh Kulu and will let you know as soon as we know.  All students in K-2 will participate in this active artist in residence program with a performance to follow.  More information to come...
