Welcome to the Official Website of the Junior Guilders
The Junior Guilders welcome you to their official website.
The organization known as the Junior Guilders originated following the child auditions for the Lucille Ball Little Theatre's production of "Annie." Artistic Director Fredericka Woodard came up with the idea that all girls that failed to make the cast of "Annie" as orphans should be given a chance to perform, and chose Helen Merrill to oversee operations as Artistic Director and Founder.
Thus the Guilders were born.
The Guilders organization, in the past 25 plus years, have performed at the White House, three times at Walt Disney World in Orlando, FL, as well as performing most recently at Hersheypark, just to name a few. Check out our About Us section to find a PDF resume of all the Guilders have done.
We welcome you to our space on the web and hope you enjoy.
