Two Lynnfield students will be taking the stage at Stoneham Theatre during the theatre’s young company Winter Festival.  Stoneham Theatre’s young company offers year-round theatrical training and performing opportunities for children ages 7 – 18.  This year’s Winter Festival will showcase three musicals adapted from classic stories:  A YEAR WITH FROG AND TOAD, HONK! (Based on THE UGLY DUCKLING), and JANE EYRE:  the musical. 

Annie Dillon will appear in JANE EYRE: the musical.  Based on the novel by Charlotte Brontë, JANE EYRE: the musical follows the story of an ill-treated orphan girl as she grows into womanhood.  Talkin’ Broadway called JANE EYRE: the musical “A successful dramatic interpretation of the ever-popular novel.”    

Caroline Sprince can be seen in A YEAR WITH FROG AND TOAD.  Based on the Frog and Toad stories written and illustrated by Arnold Lobel, A YEAR WITH FROG AND TOAD follows the musical journey of two friends, a worrywart toad and a perky frog.  A YEAR WITH FROG AND TOAD follows these two amphibians and their woodland friends through a year’s worth of adventures.
