At the end of each session a showcase is held for families to come and watch. FALL SESSION SHOW—Madagascar—A Musical Adventure JR. Join Alex the Lion, Marty the Zebra, Melman the Giraffe, Gloria the Hip Hip Hippo, and, of course, those hilarious, plotting penguins as they bound on stage in the musical adventure of a lifetime. Based on the smash DreamWorks animated motion picture, Madagascar – A Musical Adventure JR. follows all your favorite crack-a-lackin’ friends as they escape from their home in New York’s Central Park Zoo and find themselves on an unexpected journey to the madcap world of King Julien’s Madagascar. SHOWCASE at St. Mary Catholic High School January 18/19. (Times TBD after week two.) WINTER SESSION SHOW—Annie JR. Annie JR. is based on the popular comic strip and adapted from the Tony Award-winning Best Musical, with a beloved book and score by Tony Award winners, Thomas Meehan, Charles Strouse, and Martin Charnin.

With equal measures of pluck and positivity, little orphan Annie charms everyone's hearts despite a next-to-nothing start in 1930s New York City. Annie is determined to find the parents who, years ago, abandoned her on the doorstep of an orphanage run by the cruel Miss Hannigan. Annie eventually foils Miss Hannigan's evil machinations, finding a new home and family in billionaire Oliver Warbucks, his personal secretary, Grace Farrell, and a lovable mutt named Sandy.
