The Big One-Oh Jr. Cast Spotlight!
Zombie King, Swampy, and Alien are Charley's imaginary friends—his 3 Monsters. When Charley is feeling frazzled or friendless, his Monsters appear to talk him through any dilemma and help him make decisions.
Rachel Hurst (Alien) is returning to the ACMS stage after a great run in last year's production of Newsies Jr.! She is such a character, bringing high energy and such a positive light to the stage! Her dance skills paired with an innate stage presence make her an unstoppable force when she steps on stage.
Devin Arnwine (Zombie King) is an ACMS Fine Arts Department veteran. She is no stranger to the stage, having done the ACMS musical for 3 years, as well as many productions at The Arts Center. When you hear this young lady sing, you'll understand why she is soooo special.
Caitlyn Long (Swampy) is an ACMS Fine Arts Department veteran and leader!! She has been a star since she hit the stage in Matilda Jr.! Cailtyn has an indomitable presence on stage and it's impossible not to notice her! When you come to see this show, prepare to be overwhelmed by her talent!
Based on the beloved book, The Big One-Oh! JR. features lyrics by Academy Award-winner (Fame, Footloose) Dean Pitchford, the author of the novel; music by three-time Tony-winner Doug Besterman (The Producers, Fosse, Elf, Young Frankenstein), and a book by iTheatric's award-winning playwright Timothy Allen McDonald (Roald Dahl's Willy Wonka, James and the Giant Peach).
You have 4 chances to come see this show!! Tickets are $10 for adults, $8 for students and can be pre-purchased in the office at ACMS or bought at the door!
Doors open at 6:00 and the show starts at 6:30 Thursday-Saturday. For the Sunday matinee, doors open at 2:30, with the show starting at 3:00.
