Discover your inner performer and step into the spotlight in this interactive theatre experience! Through fun drama games, imagination, and activities, we'll learn iconic songs, scenes and dances from the beloved Disney animated film, The Aristocats. 

In the heart of Paris, a kind and eccentric millionairess wills her entire estate to Duchess, her high-society cat, and her three little kittens. Laughs and adventure ensue as the greedy, bumbling butler pulls off the ultimate catnap caper. Now it's up to the rough-and-tumble alley cat, Thomas O'Malley, and his band of swingin' jazz cats to save the day.

We'll have lots of feline fun and explore music skills including rhythm, pitch, and melody lines, along with the basics of acting.

Everyone is invited to return on Wednesday, April 8 for a performance of what we've been working on for our families and friends. Details will be sent out as we get closer to the date.
