Dear all,
I hope you have been practicing your lines and songs for the auditions if you are considering trying out for a speaking role. Remember, this is open to all students in grades 3, 4 and 5.
Peter Pan is a very popular musical performed in schools all over the globe. We will be performing a version based on the Disney film and J.M. Barrie's enchanting play, Disney's Peter Pan JR, a modern version of the timeless tale about a boy who wouldn't grow up... with SOME flying required! New arrangements of classic Disney songs and a story featuring one rousing adventure after another will guarantee a fantastic show.
Remember: this is MUSICAL THEATRE! Musical theatre combines music, songs, spoken dialogue and dance. Also called 'musicals', they are usually performed in theatres.
Musicals set out to entertain through a combination of:
Catchy music in a popular style, solo songs, duets, choruses and ensembles, orchestra or band accompaniment, spoken dialogue, dance sequences, stage spectacles and magnificent costumes!
You can find many examples of Peter Pan Jnr on the internet. This is a version of "You Can Fly", one of the more well known songs, from a children's production.
