Kaiser Woodland PFO is excited to announce this year's musical The Little Mermaid Jr. There are 60 available spots in the show. The first 60 students (4th-6th grade) who register and audition will be cast. 6th grade students will have a 1 day advance opportunity to register. Please note: spots fill up quickly. Please read the important information below.

This experience will provide 14 weeks (60 hours) of theater instruction provided by Arts & Learning Conservatory as well as the opportunity to perform for family and friends in a high school theater. An OPTIONAL DONATION of $250 per participant is requested for tuition. The production of this play is not a fundraiser. Tuition and ticket sales are what mostly cover the cost of this wonderful experience. The $250 represents $4.16 per hour for 60 hours of theater instruction. Please carefully review the dates and discuss the commitment with your child. There are 27 rehearsal dates (including a busy tech week) and 4 days of performances. It is VERY important that your child attend ALL rehearsals, tech week, and performances. If your child cannot make this commitment, please do not register for the play. We do not cast understudies and all roles cast are important to the success of the play. Please also note that all students will be expected to abide by a behavior contract with a three-strike rule. If you have any questions please email kschoolplay@gmail.com.
