Walter Elementary in Tioga Junction, Wednesday, Jan. 10 at Clark Wood Elementary in Elkland and Thursday, Jan. 11 at Westfield Elementary.
Role selections will be made following the auditions. “Junie B. Jones JR” is a delightful adaptation of four of Barbara Park’s best-selling books. The show features many lovable characters and fun-filled songs.
The camp will be at the Clark Wood Elementary School at 110 Addison Hill Road in Elkland. It will open on Wednesday, Jan. 17, and end on Thursday, Feb. 1 with Pay-What-You-Can performances for the public at 7 pm on Friday and Saturday, Feb. 2 and 3.
Each camper will receive a free tee shirt, script, rehearsal CD and instruction. They will be taught choreography, how to project their voices when speaking and singing, and how to create a character and have fun.
Thanks to the generosity of the Deerfield Charitable Trust, the camp is free to students who reside in the Northern Tioga School District and attend public or private schools or are home-schooled.
