Children's Theatre and Choir
High School Productions
SIC welcomes area high schools to perform their productions on the stage of the George T. Dennis Visual & Performing Arts Center Theatre between SIC performances.
Please contact the high school for additional information.
JR. FALCON PRODUCTIONS
SIC's Junior Falcon Productions offers an opportunity for children from around the region to come together for a big musical production (or two) each summer. They have the opportunity to hone their vocal, acting, and dancing skills, meet new friends from neighboring towns, and perform on a real stage. Some of the more recent shows include Annie Jr., Frozen Jr., Mamma Mia!, Legally Blonde The Musical, The Wizard of Oz, Spongebob the Musical, Willy Wonka, Jr., Chicago Teen Edition, and Seussical.
Auditions are generally held in late April or early May, with rehearsals beginning as soon as school is out for the summer. Children who are interested in a speaking role must audition, but those interested in the ensemble only simply need to register.
SIC Children's Choir
The SIC Children’s Choir is a joyful opportunity for students in grades 3–8 who love to sing! Directed by Hannah Nance — a Harrisburg High School teacher, award-winning speech coach, and music director for Jr. Falcon Productions — this ensemble focuses on learning music in a fun, welcoming environment.
Rehearsals take place Thursdays from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. on the SIC campus during the fall and spring semesters. Students build vocal skills, confidence, and friendships, all while preparing for a concert performance at the end of each season.
For more information, please email music@sic.edu.
