Calling All Elves
(KELOWNA, BC) – Kelowna Actors Studio and Orchard Park Shopping Centre are on the search for a few good elves. Actors Studio is thrilled to announce that they have been once again commissioned by Orchard Park Shopping Centre to recruit the elves and Mrs. Claus characters for their annual Santa display.
|
“A child’s visit to Santa should be a fun and exciting part of Christmas, filled with magic and wonder,” says Orchard Park Shopping Centre marketing manager, Natalie Walstrom. “We are thrilled to team up with Kelowna Actors Studio once again to deliver just that!”
|
Leslie’s continued artistic vision is that the hired performers will present definite and entertaining attributes, which will be incorporated into their personal costuming and talents.
|
A series of interviews and workshops will assist in finding friendly, outgoing individuals who enjoy working with children and adults in an interactive environment. As the individuals will be playing a role as an elf or Mrs. Claus, past performance experience is a plus, but not a pre-requisite. All costuming will be the responsibility of Kelowna Actors Studio and popular local costumer, Joy Green.
|
“I felt that it’s imperative to the overall feel and experience that the ‘set’ be treated very much as a performance and each team member aid in an experience similar to that you would expect in a Disney environment,” expains Leslie.
|
Now entering its ninth season, Kelowna Actors Studio's mandate is to produce vibrant, exciting presentations; fun, challenging and enriching learning experiences for students of all ages; and to enrich the cultural landscape of the Okanagan Valley.
Orchard Park Shopping Centre, located in the Okanagan Valley, currently offers more than 170 shops and services and has over 6 million shoppers each year. Orchard Park is owned and operated by Primaris Retail REIT (TSX: PMZ.UN).
|
As part of this unique partnership opportunity, Orchard Park will be the presenting sponsor of Kelowna Actors Studio’s holiday season production of the classic musical Annie!
|
“We understand the importance of a child's visit to Santa, and we are excited at the prospect of recreating the magic this Christmas for Okanagan children of all ages at Orchard Park Shopping Centre,” concludes Kelowna Actors Studio’s Randy Leslie.
