Does your child dream of taking center stage? Now is the time to make those dreams come true.

The Friends of the Historic Seminole Theatre are proud to announce another Junior Players production. The theater conservatory program provides training and performance opportunities for young people. Kids of ages 9-16 can now register for our spring production of Once on this island Jr.

An island of storytellers come together to tell a story of love, bravery, and strength...the story of the peasant girl, Ti Moune. An orphan, chosen by the Gods, is taken into a simple and loving family, Though content, she feels like she was destined for something more. After a terrible accident caused by a wicked storm, Ti Moune falls for a handsome, ailing, stranger whom she tries desperately to nurse back to health. She bargains with the Gods for his life, but to do so she must make the ultimate sacrifice. This sets our young peasant girl on the ultimate quest to answer the age old question, can love conquer death?

The rehearsals will be every Saturday, January 21, 2023 from 8:30am – 5:30pm at the Seminole Theatre. Plan to bring a snack and lunch during every rehearsal. We also expect the students to be available every evening for tech rehearsals 04/17/23- 04/20/22, and for the three performances 04/21/23-04/23/23(Friday and Saturday evenings, Sunday afternoon).

No experience required! The Jr. Players are open to all who wish to be involved. Auditions will be held on the first rehearsal day, and parts will be assigned for the production. Not every student can play a lead role, but every student will be an integral part of a fun production and have a fantastic learning experience.
