Children perform in Âé¶¹´«Ã½'s "Holiday Spectacular" musical.

Do you know of a young singer or dancer between the ages of 5 and 12 who would love the opportunity to perform on stage? Âé¶¹´«Ã½ will hold children’s auditions this summer for its “Holiday Spectacular†extravaganza and for the role of Chip, an enchanted teacup, in “Beauty and the Beast.â€

Auditions will take place from 6-8 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 15 in the Freed Center for The Performing Arts, 500 W. College Ave., Ada. Those auditioning for the “Holiday Spectacular†may be asked to sing and be ready to participate in a dance call (jazz and/or tap shoes). Children interested in auditioning for “Beauty and the Beast†should also be prepared to sing and read sides. A script will be provided.

“Holiday Spectacular†will be performed on Âé¶¹´«Ã½â€™s campus on Nov. 18, 19 and 20, and in Lima, Ohio on Dec. 3, 4 and 5. “Beauty and the Beast†will be performed at Âé¶¹´«Ã½ on Oct. 2, 3, 14, 15, 16 and 17.
