Pennsauken Youth Action Committee Theatre To Hold Auditions For Summer Production
Auditions for the Pennsauken Youth Action Committee’s performance of “Shrek Jr. The Musical” will be held on May 19, 20 and 22 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Howard M. Phifer Middle School, 8201 Park Ave., Pennsauken. Adapted for children ages 7 to 14, “Shrek Jr. The Musical” is based on the Oscar-winning DreamWorks Animation film.
In a faraway kingdom, the green ogre Shrek finds his swamp invaded by banished fairytale misfits, runaways who’ve been cast off by Lord Farquaad, a tiny terror with big ambitions. When Shrek sets off with a wise-cracking donkey to confront Farquaad, he’s handed a task – if he rescues feisty Princess Fiona from the Dragon-guarded tower, his swamp will be returned to him. But, a fairy tale wouldn’t be complete without unexpected twists and turns along the way.
The play is for children ages 7 to 14. To sign up for a time slot, or for more information, e-mail Elwood “Duke” Martz at emartz@twp.pennsauken.nj.us or call (856) 665-1000 x151. There will be a $50 audition/performance fee collected at the time of audition.
