Our JTF TeamWe have assembled a team of 21 students grades 4-6 who exhibit the maturity, talent, experience, and collaborative teamwork to represent our schools at this national conference. These kids are triple threats- awesome singers, dancers, and actors. These students have participated in multiple shows with us, including our summer productions once they moved onto middle school. We are so proud to have these young people representing Oasis Arts in Atlanta in January of 2017.

The Show |
The JTF Team will perform a showcase of our Spring 2016 show: SHREK THE MUSICAL JR!

At the Festival |
What will they do at festival? Students will need to choose 15 minutes of a recent production and perform it for a group of highly accomplished adjudicators that have in the past included Broadway stars and directors, television and movie actors, and other special guests. Each group is critiqued based on ensemble work, singing, acting, and dancing. Then awards are given based on the group's scores, and even individual recognition for outstanding performers. But that's not all! Students will partake in various workshops to perfect their craft, attend dozens of performances, participate in impromptu performances themselves, and interact with thousands of young people just like them from around the world. It is truly to be an enlightening experience!

How Can You Help? |
Such an amazing trip comes with a large cost. Our group is going to need upwards of $20,000 for registration fees, travel costs, hotels, and food. If you could help out in any way, large or small, we would be so grateful to you! Thank you for your support of the arts!
