By Jason Cocovinis on June 24, 2013
We're thrilled to announce the release of FRECKLEFACE STRAWBERRY - EXPANDED CAST VERSION.FRECKLEFACE STRAWBERRY THE MUSICAL is based on the beloved New York Times Best Selling book by celebrated actress Julianne Moore. You and your family can step inside the book's pages with Freckleface and friends as they learn to love the skin they're in.
Freckleface Strawberry will do anything to get rid of her freckles – from scrubbing them with soap, to caking on makeup, and even wearing a ski mask to school! Will her schoolmates realize it's her under the mask? Will Freckleface be brave enough to finally face her complexion in the mirror? With the help of her loveable schoolmates including an amazingly talented ballerina, a cutie jock, a charming ditz, and a totally kooky teacher, Freckleface learns that everyone is different - and that's what makes everyone special. With soaring live music, awesome dancing, and a freckleface full of laughs, your whole family will love this brand new musical for all ages...freckles or not!
About the Expanded Version
The expanded version adds other "students," and splits out some of the doubled/tripled roles into individual characters. It also allows for an unlimited number of extra ensemble members to sing in the group numbers. This lets the 7 cast members in the regular version grow to 15+ in the expanded version. With a few tiny exceptions, none of the material itself has changed, nor has anything been added. Lines/lyrics have simply been re-assigned or redistributed to account for more characters.
