Even if you saw the show when we did it WAY back 10 years ago, we can promise the 2023 version of A LITTLE PRINCESS will look and feel completely different.

Fun Fact: Our 2013 production didn't even feature the character of Miss Amelia Minchin (played this year by Olivia M.) #PumphouseJunior #PumphousePlayers #ChildrensTheatre #ArtForEveryStage #VisitCartersville #ForBartow #ALittlePrincess #FrancesHodgsonBurnett
Today we're giving a HUGE shoutout to our summer Pumphouse Junior volunteers!

We couldn't be more thankful for this amazing group of 29 performers who dedicated their fall to putting on The Best Christmas Pageant Ever for 8 sold out audiences. This classic Christmas story has been around since 1971 โ just 4 years longer than Pumphouse! One of the reasons it's so popular is because it gives lots of kids and their families chances to perform together. Fun fact: This year's cast includes 3 parent/child performer combos, and 3 additional pairs of siblings! #TheBestChristmasPageantEver #BCPE #PumphouseJunior #PumphousePlayers #ChildrensTheatre #VisitCartersville #ForBartow #ArtForEveryStage

Another #TBT to a mainstage show: the literary classic THE CRUCIBLE (2015; dir. Suzanne Husting) starring Peyton Hudson as the infamous Abigail Williams. Working on a literary giant like Arthur Miller's THE CRUCIBLE means learning to put history into context (The Red Scare of the 1950s + The Salem Witch Trials) while striving to turn well-known characters into unique humans. We loved seeing this treasured show come to life! #AmericasOGMeanGirls #WhichWitch

Thanks to the generosity of our Pumpies, families, and friends, we've been able to reach over 11% of our annual funding goal in just a couple short months! โ ๐โ We've been carefully budgeting our operational funds, but we've needed to purchase equipment like our camera and audio equipment to make our Pumphouse Junior shows possible this fall.

Ms. Taylor was the recipient of the "Newcomer of the Year" Pumpie Award in 2019, so she knows a thing or two about diving in and becoming a part of a whole new world. When we asked her advice, she said, "My advice to newcomers and returning auditioners alike is to have fun, have confidence, and don't be afraid to ask questions." โ โ Questions are an important part of learning! Never be ashamed to ask questions!
