The new musical, Freaky Friday, based on the beloved 1972 novel by Mary Rodgers and the hit Disney films (and developed by Disney Theatrical Productions expressly for licensing to theatres), features a book by Bridget Carpenter - the co-executive producer and writer on the beloved TV hits, "Friday Night Lights" and "Parenthood" - and music and lyrics by Tom Kitt and Brian Yorkey - the Pulitzer Prize-winning composers of Next to Normal and If/Then.
​
When an overworked mother and her teenage daughter magically swap bodies, they have just one day to put things right again. Freaky Friday, a new musical based on the celebrated novel by Mary Rodgers and the hit Disney films, is a heartfelt, comedic, and unexpectedly emotional update on an American classic. By spending a day in each other's shoes, Katherine and Ellie come to appreciate one another's struggles, learn self-acceptance, and realize the immeasurable love and mutual respect that bond a mother and daughter.

Freaky Friday Volunteer Requirements: 
CPA requires a $150.00 Volunteer Check at the time of registration. 
  • If the parent/guardian completes their volunteer time, the check will be shredded.  If not completed, you will be notified prior to cashing your check.  The requirements are as follows:
    • 6 hours of volunteer time
    • Volunteer at 2 performances
    • Participate in set strike following the final performance
Why do you require background checks for volunteers?
​
Every year, CPA relies on its volunteers to assist to create successful programs.  Our volunteers fulfill roles as guardians, costume and stage assistants, lead chaperones, and so much more.  We are so fortunate to have parent volunteers and their vital contribution to CPA’s success.  We could not do what we do without you.  CPA takes seriously its commitment to promoting a safe, secure and welcoming environment for our young participants.  All volunteers (with the exception of our Junior Directors) will be required to complete a CONFIDENTIAL background check.  The ultimate goal is to verify identity and prevent unidentified individuals from entering rehearsal practices or jeopardizing a child’s safety.  The safety of the children enrolled in our program is of the highest priority to us!  Cost for background checks is $17.00.  CLICK HERE for more info.

Participation Fee for Grease is $295.00.  Price includes theater education and t-shirt.
​We also require a $25.00 non-refundable Registration Fee per child (paid once annually for our programs).
