Opportunity for Hudsonville Elementary Students….
For the first time, Diane Scott and I would like to invite Hudsonville elementary students to audition to be part of an elementary chorus to participate in our upcoming fall production of Elf the Musical Jr.! The musical is based upon the wildly popular holiday movie starring Will Ferrell and is the perfect show to open the new auditorium and welcome the holiday season. Students will be asked to sing and perform simple choreography.
Elementary student auditions are on Saturday, September 26 in the Baldwin Street Middle School Choir Room. A link is provided in the PDF that will take parents to the sign up for audition times. All students MUST sign up for an audition through the website.
Students in Pre-K through 5th grade are welcome! Parents will be expected to volunteer to chaperon rehearsals and will need to provide all transportation. Here is a link to view all of the details if your child is interested in auditioning!ElfMusicalInfoLetterES
