The Spring 20234 Junior Jammers performing arts class will be performing their own play – Pride and Prejudice for Kids! This is a hilarious adaptation of a well-known classic, written by the same author as our previous performances.
Kids will learn the basics of being in a play and how to perform through games and other activities. At the end of the class, they will perform for their family and friends on Friday, June 7. This will be a full performance with costumes and microphones.
No auditions are needed for the Jr. Jammers class, everyone who signs up will be able to participate.
This is a great program for first time performers, no experience is necessary. We’ll work with anyone! You can watch our Fall 2023 performance of A Christmas Carol on our YouTube page.
