  • Million Dollar Milestones Hamilton Mania
    Million Dollar Milestones • At the 11th Annual Joci Awards in April, Las Casas Foundation awarded a record breaking $118,000 in scholarships, surpassing $1 million in total scholarship giving since the inception of the Scholarship Program. • An exceptionally competitive year, in addition to the 25 finalists who were selected, additional students were chosen to perform in celebration of awarding our millionth scholarship dollar. These eight “One In A Million” students received $1,000 scholarships. • Four students were selected for the Production Assistant Internship Program. These students shadowed the Blanchard Creative Group and served as assistant stage managers during tech week and the final performance. These students also received $1,000 scholarships. • The 11th Annual Joci Awards was attended by over 650 people, a 10% increase over 2018. • In addition to the scholarships awarded, two students (Katie Bulen of Taft High School and Jackson Hager of Reagan High School) were selected to represent the region at the National High School Musical Theatre Awards. They, along with perennial chaperone Ana Flores, spent a week at NYU working with Broadway professionals before performing on stage of the Minskoff Theatre on June 24. • In order to select these two students, staff and adjudicators attended 21 productions from October 2018 through February 2019. The number of productions remained consistent with the prior year, but new schools included Geneva School of Boerne, Harlan High School (NISD) and Edison High School (SAISD). • For the first time, the top three musicals were recognized for their exceptional productions. $500 grants were presented to Taft High School for its production of The Drowsy Chaperone, Reagan High School for its production of Hello, Dolly!, and Brennan High School for its production of Into the Woods.

  • All-Star Cast Announced for ELF: the Musical at the Hamilton Family
    All-Star Cast Announced for ELF: The Musical at the Hamilton Family Theatre Cambridge Popular Panto Performer Tim Porter to Play Buddy The Elf Monday, September 16, 2019 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear! Fall has arrived and with the autumn leaves comes the countdown to the holiday season (100 days until Christmas!). Drayton Entertainment is pleased to announce that actor Tim Porter will don the iconic yellow tights when he takes on the coveted role of Buddy the Elf in the company’s highly-anticipated production of ELF: The Musical. The production will run at the Hamilton Family Theatre Cambridge from November 20 to December 22. Audiences will recognize Porter as the comical sidekick in many pantos – in Jack and the Beanstalk, he was Jack’s silly brother Super Simon; in Cinderella, he was the princess’ charming companion Buttons; in Aladdin, he was the hero’s trusted pal Wishy Washy; and in Snow White, he was the heroine’s loyal woodsman Woody. This holiday season, Porter will take centre stage in the lead role of Buddy the Elf, the character made famous by Will Ferrell in the 2003 hit holiday movie. “Through his loveable panto characters, Tim has become an audience favourite with families,” says Alex Mustakas, Artistic Director of Drayton Entertainment. “He's got just the right goofy charm and joyful spirit to fill the green shoes of Buddy the Elf. Audiences are going to love him.” In addition to his work in the panto productions, Porter has also appeared in Man of La Mancha, The Drowsy Chaperone, HONK!, and many other shows for Drayton Entertainment.
