This production is a part of St. Anselm’s summer programs and requires registration online, with a fee of $300.

Rehearsals will take place Monday-Friday, July 7th-11th, and Monday-Friday, July 14th-18th. Rehearsals will take place from 12-3pm. The production will take place Friday, July 18th at 7pm. If you must miss a rehearsal, our office can adjust your registration fee. There are shuttles, upon request, that can take you to and from Ft. Totten Metro station and St. Anselm’s. This summer stock musical is open to students entering grades 6 through recent graduates.

Students will audition for roles on the first day of “camp”, then rehearse for three hours, per day, for two weeks. A production will take place at the end of the two weeks that will be free to attend for family, friends, and loved ones.

Throughout the rehearsals, students will participate in workshops that focus on acting, singing, and dancing. Students will get costumes, props, set, lighting, and sound added to their production. All in under 2 weeks!!

Frozen has plenty of roles for students of all ages and backgrounds.

To prepare for our show and auditions, we will hold four days of bootcamp before school starts.

Participating in the cast for this show is restricted to students in grades 6-12.

We HIGHLY encourage girls from other schools to attend bootcamp and audition for us! We NEED you! Bring your friends!

At bootcamp you can expect:

Snacks provided.
Pack your own meal (lunch or dinner, depending on your day/time).
Lots of fun and games.
Learning some of the songs in the show.
Learning some of the dances in the show.
We will be learning actual parts of our show that WILL be performed. We will be learning things that you will need to know for auditions. You MUST attend at least one day if you wish to be in the show. (Contact Ms. Shaw if you absolutely cannot make it: LShaw@Saintanselms.org)

If you are unsure about this, join us anyways! We will have a ton of fun! Ms. Shaw will lead you through every step!
