Fall Jellybeans Production
Grades K-2
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a family musical adapted from Mark Twain’s beloved novel and specially commissioned by The Random Farms Kids’ Theater. In the story, Tom meets and falls in love with Becky Thatcher. However, Becky’s father, Judge Thatcher, does not approve of Becky fraternizing with a mischievous boy like Tom. Tom prevails when he secretly takes Becky’s punishment for her after she spills ink on the schoolmaster’s prized book of verses. Then, he returns home from a pirate adventure, unwittingly returning the stolen treasure to its rightful owner.

View Each Group’s Full Schedule HerePARTICIPATION POLICY
For sessions 2-9: Each child is permitted one absence and 2 shadows. Session 1 (role placement) does not count towards our attendance policy since no material is being taught. Additional absences or shadows due to illness will be permitted solely at the discretion of the director.
For session 10 and 11: Children are required to attend and participate in (and may not shadow, arrive late to, or leave early from) our two mandatory rehearsals. These rehearsals include the dress rehearsal (session 10), and the final dress/performance (session 11), all of which are marked as mandatory on the rehearsal schedule. Please make sure to double-check your child’s schedule to ensure their availability for these mandatory rehearsals.

WAIT LIST / PRIORITY REGISTRATION
There is no cost to join a waitlist. If a spot becomes available, we will email you and you can decide at that time if you would like to take it. If we are unable to get you off the waitlist, your child will receive priority registration for the next Jellybeans production. That means that you will be given the opportunity to register before the program opens to the public. Please contact hello@
