Hello THAC Friends & Followers,
I hope you are having the happiest of holidays this season. For the many bah-humbuggers you may have encountered during this Black Friday post-holiday week of madness, THAC has the perfect solution to bring you and your peers some holiday cheer! Town Hall Arts Center’s Theatre Education Department has a variety of different classes serving and promoting the importance of performing arts in youth culture throughout metro Denver. We hold multiple sessions of our Actor’s Playground — children’s theater workshop classes for ages 5 to 18. In general we plan 6 summer sessions, 5 fall sessions, and 5 winter/spring sessions. As one season ends, another begins! But not before a fantastic round of LIVE PERFORMANCES on the main stage at Town Hall Arts Center from these future stars! Our Fall Class Play Productions at THAC are FREE and open to the public! Check the schedule (below) and come visit us for an hour of FREE LIVE YOUTH THEATRE this holiday season!

FALL CLASS PLAY PRODUCTION SCHEDULE:
SUN | 12.07.14 | 6:00 PM
THE FINAL DRESS REHERSAL
Grades 6 – 12
Directed by: Susan Rahmsdorff
Our most exciting production yet! One-half student created, one-half Noises Off! Our actors will create their unique characters and give them personality. Students build the first half of the show together as those characters hilariously audition for the school play. Then, in the second act, we go back to the script to see the disastrous results as the production falls apart around them! You think the theater is crazy from an audience perspective? Wait until you see the pandemonium back stage!
MON | 12.08.14 | 6:00 PM
CINDERELLA: A COMEDY
Grades 3 – 5
Directed by: Luann Buckstein
Who let the mice drive? Join us for this hilarious “Fractured Fairytales” style take on the classic story. We all know the tale of little Ella, forced to do the dirty work so often she became Cinder-Ella! Thanks to her Fairy Godmother, Cinderella scrubs up pretty well, much to the dismay of her wicked Stepmother and terrible Step Sisters!
TUES | 12.09.14 | 5:30 PM
ROBIN HOOD
Grades K – 3
Directed by: Justin Kress
Join Robin Hood, Maid Marian, Little John and the whole band of Merry Outlaws as they take on the dastardly Sheriff of Nottingham. We’ll rob from the wicked and give to the good and have a great time doing it!
WED | 12.10.14 | 6:00 PM
PERCY JACKSON 2: SEA OF MONSTERS
Grades: 5 – 7
Directed by: Kelly McAllister
Kronos has a new plan to rise and destroy Olympus! This time, it starts with breaking down the protections around Camp Half-Blood. In an attempt to save their sanctuary, Percy, Grover, Annabeth, and Percy’s half-brother, Tyson, set off to find the mythical Golden Fleece that can heal any wound. Along the way, they’ll meet gods and monsters and an array of the most bizarre characters, all living unnoticed in our world! Can Percy accept the burdens of leadership and his family? Can you fight prophecy, even if you aren’t sure what it means? Who is going to get eaten and will that slow them down?
THURS | 12.11.14 | 4:00 PM
HARRY POTTER & THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX
Grades: 5 – 7
Directed by: LuAnn Buckstein
Will Harry be kicked out of Hogwarts? It looks that way. The Ministry of Magic is calling Harry a liar and denying the return of Voldemort. On top of that, the new Defense Teacher, Dolores Umbridge, seems determined to make everything worse! In response to these threats, Sirius Black, Harry’s godfather, introduces him to “The Order of the Phoenix” – a clandestine group formed to fight the Death Eaters and Harry starts “Dumbledore’s Army” – a clandestine student group formed to fight the problems within the school itself. Can Harry, Ron, Hermione and their friends take on all these troubles and still pass their O.W.L exams?

BAND: Don’t have a favorite band, but favorite singer is Mariah Carey.
SONG: “If It’s Over” by Mariah Carey
MUSICAL: Many would say it’s “Dreamgirls” because I’m always quoting it, so we’ll go with that. Although I just saw “Kinky Boots” which could definitely become one of my favorite ones.
FOOD: Breaded Steak and potatoes and/or Pizza

WHAT’S YOUR DREAM ROLE TO BE CAST? There are so many… but maybe Marius in “Les Miserables” or Linus in “You’re A Good Man Charlie Brown.”
WHO IS YOUR HERO? BIGGEST INSPIRATION? Definitely my parents. They’ve showed us the value of hard work at an early age and how important it is to have strong faith when everything seems helpless.
WHERE ARE YOU IN 10 YEARS? Who knows. Life has taken me to some pretty cool places, but I’d love to be back in California or overseas somewhere performing in shows.
CAN WE FOLLOW YOU? FB? TWITTER? Twitter is fine. @gmorale83181014 (sorry didn’t know you could come up with with a cool name for it when I opened the account). LOL
WHY SEE ANYTHING GOES? It’s definitely a show for all the romantics at heart. The notion of a handsome man pursuing a gorgeous girl the “old school way” definitely reminds us how much of that chivalry we have lost over the years due to technology advancing so fast. I mean when a person gets asked out these days it’s via text. Not even a phone call is made anymore. I think its super romantic that Billy goes through all that trouble to get the girl he loves. Plus it’s Cole Porter’s music! Enough said. =)
