Spring Drama Club Info - 2012-2013

 

The spring session of the Coyote Creek Drama Club will begin right before winter vacation.  Unlike the fall club, this session will be by audition only.  Participation in the fall session of drama doesn’t guarantee a spot in the spring program. 

 

All interested 4th/5th graders, regardless of previous drama experience, should come to the drama club info meeting on Thursday, December 20 from 3-4:30pm in the Coyote Creek MPR.

 

At this meeting, students will receive information about the spring session in addition to audition information for the spring production of Disney's The Little Mermaid, Junior.

 

The donation for students cast in the show will be $100.   A detailed rehearsal schedule will be given to all students in the show.  Not all students will be required at all rehearsals.  Rehearsals will be during the morning recess, lunch recess, and Thursdays after school from 3pm – 5pm. 

 

I look forward to talking to all interested students at The Little Mermaid Jr. info meeting on Thursday, December 20 from 3-4:30pm in the Coyote Creek MPR.

Participation and Attendance are important!!!

Students are responsible for knowing when and where rehearsals are. If a student misplaces their paper copy of the Rehearsal Schedule, they can...

  1. view Rehearsal Schedule posted on a bulletin board by my door in room 32
  2. download and print Rehearsal Schedule from this page under "Drama Club Files" in the left-hand margin.

Parent participation is also appreciated. Consider volunteering your time, creativity, or perhaps a prop to help make the show a success. Click on the Parent Volunteer Sign-up to find out where help is needed. 

Little Mermaid Characters

 

Flounder

Flounder is Ariel’s sincere and sensitive best friend who is loyal to the end. This spunky fish also has a show-stopping solo in “She’s in Love.”

G3 - Db5

 

Sebastian

Sebastian is the meticulous and anxious crab who tries to keep Ariel safe while getting to lead some of the most memorable songs in the show!

A3 - D5

 

Scuttle

Scuttle is the know-it-all seagull who serves as Ariel’s expert on humans. He is funny and off-beat.  Scuttle needs good comedic timing and can have fun with Scuttle’s eccentricities.

B3 - E5

 

Ariel

Ariel, the heroine of our story, is a little mermaid who longs to be human. She’s a strong singer and dynamic performer. Ariel has some beautiful solos but must be able to convey meaning through gesture once she loses her voice.

Bb3 - Eb5

 

King Triton

King Triton rules the sea and is a force to be reckoned with. This non-singer needs to command the stage as a strong leader but also show the tenderness of a parent.

 

Flotsam & Jetsam

Flotsam and Jetsam are Ursula’s slippery spies. These electric eels are sinister and sneaky.  They are underhanded and devious.

C4 - C#5

 

Ursula

Ursula is the manipulative sea witch who tries to overthrow King Triton. She is cunning and devious and will stop at nothing to get what she wants. Ursula’s songs can be challenging.

F3 - C#5

 

Mersisters

The Mersisters (Aquata, Andrina, Arista, Atina, Adella, Allana) are Ariel’s siblings and full of personality and sass.

G3 - G5

 

Prince Eric

Prince Eric is the adventurous prince who captures Ariel’s heart. He is a charming performer with a sensitive nature. Prince Eric has a few small solos, who needs to be a strong actor.

B3 - D5

 

Grimsby

Grimsby is Prince Eric’s prim and proper valet. He is rigid in personality and constantly trying to guide Prince Eric towards the throne.

E4 - C5

 

Tentacles

The Tentacles are extensions of Ursula, perhaps the poor unfortunate souls who are now trapped in her lair. These performers need to work well together to move as a unit.

C4 - C#5

 

Gulls

The Gulls are Scuttle’s flock of zany “back-up singers” who help explain human stuff to Ariel.

B3 - G5

 

Chef Louis

Chef Louis is the over-the-top head chef in the palace. He is always wild and frenetic. This is an excellent featured role for a comedic performer.

A3 - C5

 

Chefs

The Chefs are Chef Louis’s assistants.

 

Carlotta

Carlotta is the headmistress in Prince Eric’s palace and Ariel’s greatest human ally. This non-singing role needs to be warm and maternal to make Ariel feel welcome.

 

 

 

 

Princesses

The six Princesses try everything they can to win the heart of Prince Eric.

E4 - G5

 

Pilot

The Pilot is the head sailor on Prince Eric’s ship. This nautical expert entertains the sailors with wild tales of the sea.

Bb3 - C5

 

Sailors

The Sailors are the crew of Prince Eric’s ship. They are eager for adventure and ready to tackle a storm.

 

Seahorse

The Seahorse is the court herald for King Triton.

 

Sea Creatures

The Sea Creatures are the ensemble under water animals in King Triton’s court.

 

Merfolk

The Merfolk of King Triton’s Court.

 

Lagoon Animals

The Lagoon Animals try to convince Prince Eric to kiss Ariel.

 

These ensemble roles are the key to making our production the best it can be!
