Musical Theatre Opportunity for Middle School

The Edsel Ford High School Performing Arts Department will be presenting our production of Disney’s “Freaky Friday – A New Musical” in May 8-9 and 15-16.

Mr. Doyle will be opening up the ensemble to students from grades 5-8 who attend one of our Feeder Schools or have siblings at EFHS. In addition to the ensemble, there is also one principal role for the younger brother, Fletcher.  (Actor to play 7-10 yr old)  He must be able to sing and use two different hand puppets.

Auditions will be held on Thursday, March 5th from 4-6 pm. Audition materials will be taught at the audition. Students should be prepared to read from the script, sing, and dance. Students do NOT need to have previous experience, only a willingness to commit to working on the show and learn.   

Interested students who can not attend during that time need to contact Robert Doyle at doyler@dearbornschools.org. Any further questions may be directed to Robert Doyle at the email above.

Week of January 5, 2020

Dear Families,

Students are working in class to analyze textual evidence that most strongly supports an analysis of what the text says explicitly. The text we are using to carry out this task is the play “The Diary of Anne Frank,” which is attached for you below. This story is written as a drama and has 2 Acts with 5 scenes. After each scene, students will work in a small group with the teacher or independently to answer questions from the reading. As always, please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.

Sincerely,

Ms. Timpf & Ms. Schafer
