New London — Rehearsing three times a week since January, cast members gathered for their dress rehearsal for the fifth grade production of "Frozen Kids" on Wednesday at Nathan Hale Arts Magnet School in New London.

All fifth graders who wanted to particpate in the play — aproximately 40 students — were given acting rolls or positions with the stage crew.

The cast will perform the play for their fellow students during school Thursday and for the community at 6 p.m. Friday and 1 p.m. Saturday. Members of the community who want to attend the play Friday or Saturday need to reserve seats by emailing McKayJ@newlondon.org.
