Students in kindergarten through 12 grade are invited and may audition on either day.

They will also read a short passage from the production.

The musical has 22 speaking roles with additional parts for chorus and dancers.

This year’s production is “101 Dalmations,” based on the screenplay by Bill Peet with music and lyrics by Mel Leven, Randy Rogel, Richard Gibbs, Brian Smith, Martin Lee Fuller and Dan Root.

The book is adapted with additional lyrics by Marcy Heisler.

The music was adapted and arranged by Bryan Louiselle.

The play is based on the novel “The Hundred and One Dalmatians” by Dodie Smith.

This year’s Children’s Musical is a fur-raising adventure featuring Cruella De Vil, Disney’s most outrageous villain, and 101 of the most adorable heroes to set their paws onstage.

With a high-spirited score and lovable characters, this stage adaptation is certain to charm and delight all audiences.
