Kids and teens who love performing arts are invited to audition for the STAGES St. Louis presentation of Elf Jr.
Auditions will be held at 2 p.m. on Sept. 11. and rehearsals begin on Sept. 13. Performances are Dec. 2-4 and Dec. 9-11.
Based on the beloved film, Elf Jr. is a holiday classic sure to make every young performer embrace his or her "inner elf" with plenty of large ensemble numbers featuring elves and New Yorkers of every type. Buddy, a young orphan, mistakenly crawls into Santa's bag of gifts and is transported to the North Pole. The would-be elf is raised, unaware that he is actually human, until his enormous size and poor toy-making abilities cause him to face the truth.
For children in grades 2-12. More information: stagesstlouis.org
