Students perform 'Little Shop"
By Rose Sgarlato
SPARTA — Acting A Part Theatre Company ended the year last weekend (Dec. 17 and 18) with a bang, performing the comical yet dramatic “Little Shop of Horrors.”
The student cast ages 9 through 16 led the audience through a series of songs and acts about a florist shop worker on New York’s Skid Row who raises a unique plant that brings him fame. And a romantic theme is interlaced.
The popular movie in 1986 was based on an off-Broadway play.
Offering theater, television and film programs that encompass acting, directing and writing components of a production, Acting –A-Part caters to all ages. A variety of 10 to 15-week programs get participants involved with the whole creative process.
Owner and Sparta resident Erika Lupo recently franchised Acting–A-Part with locations in California and New Jersey.
Upcoming winter workshops include and are ‘inspired by’ “Moana”, “Finding Dory”, “Legally Blonde”, “Teen Beach Musical”, “Harry Potter” and “Pretty Little Liarz.”
Registration is now open for the 2017 season. Go to www.actingapart.com or call 973-879-3651.
