For nearly 25 years, Act Too Players<\/a> has been supporting local kids with a wide range of music and theater classes, camps and performance opportunities<\/a>. Owner and theater arts director Sondra Morton has built up a wonderfully inclusive and empowering community, and all classes are taught by seasoned music and theater pros. It\u2019s always a lot of fun to see these budding artists in action, and beginning this Friday, you can check out Act Too\u2019s latest efforts at the historic Franklin Theatre. Performances kick off on January 16 with a delightful 30-minute adaptation of Disney\u2019s Frozen Kids<\/em> (featuring youngsters ages 7-9). There\u2019s also a great one-act version of Disney\u2019s Aladdin Jr.<\/em> (ages 10-13), along with a sweet non-musical show called Junie B. Jones: Toothless Wonder<\/em> (ages 8-15). And on January 24-25, look for a pair of classic musicals \u2014 Lionel Bart\u2019s Oliver Jr.<\/em>, which offers a lovely musical retelling of Charles Dickens\u2019 Oliver Twist<\/em> (ages 7-18), and a special school edition of Stephen Sondheim\u2019s Tony Award-winner Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street<\/em> (ages 14-18).\u00a0<\/p>\n Jan. 16-18 & 24-25 at The Franklin Theatre<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.williamsonscene.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" For nearly 25 years, Act Too Players has been supporting local kids with a wide range of music and theater classes, camps and performance opportunities.
