Rising 3rd - 9th graders
June 16 - July 12

This production is open to rising 3rd – 9th grade students on a first-come,
first-served basis; auditions are not required.
Richmond actor, composer and teacher Paul Deiss will be the director for this production and our guide for four weeks of learning about theater and music. Stephanie Pyle, actor and Luther Memorial teacher, will be the assistant director of this production.
Dear Edwina Jr. is an uproariously funny musical that follows the adventures of advice giver extraordinaire, Edwina Spoonapple as she directs the kids in the neighborhood in production number after hilarious production number in her “Advise-A-Palooza” extravaganza. Sweet, smart and tuneful, this musical appeals to children of all ages, as Edwina doles out her advise, and then finally learns to listen to some herself!
This production is open to rising 6th – 9th grade students. Auditions will be
held at Luther Memorial School on these dates:
Sunday, March 9 from 1:00 – 4:00 p.m.
Monday, March 10 from 5:00 – 8:00 p.m.
Information about the audition requirements and process is available from the
Summer Programs Director, Pat Scott.Richmond actors, Janine Russo Fuller and Paul Deiss, will be returning for their thirteenth year with Luther’s summer drama program. They will work with each student to blend acting, singing, and dancing into a “personal best” performance. The Boy Friend is a 1920’s musical comedy set in the French Riviera. It is a zany love story that includes catchy tunes and period dances such as the Charleston. It was also the musical that was introduced Julie Andrews to Broadway in 1954. Students will love this fast-paced romantic spoof of a 1920’s musical comedy! At the end of the four-week camp, the curtain will go up on
The Boy Friend at the Cultural Arts Center at Glen Allen. Get your tickets early - these performances sell out quickly!
