MISSOULA CHILDREn'S THEATRE SUMMER CAMP
Missoula Children’s Theatre is bringing their summer residency tour to Moultrie! During this week-long camp, participants ages 5-18 (must be at least rising 1st grade), will audition for a part, be cast in the production, learn lines and choreography, and perform in two live theater shows!
Camp meets Monday - Friday, July 15-19, from 1:00 - 5:15 pm.
Performances are Friday, July 19 at 7:00 pm and Saturday, July 20 at 2:00 pm.
The Missoula Children's Theatre (MCT), the nation’s largest touring children’s theatre, has been touring extensively for more than 40 years now from Montana to Japan, and will visit nearly 1,200 communities this year with up to 44 teams of Tour Actor/Directors. A tour team arrives in a given town with a set, lights, costumes, props and make-up, everything it takes to put on a play...except the cast. The team holds an open audition and casts 50-60 local students to perform in the production. The show is rehearsed throughout the week and two public performances are presented on Saturday. All MCT shows are original adaptations of classic children’s stories and fairytales . . . a twist on the classic stories that you know and love. Also included in the residency are three enrichment workshops presented by the Tour Actor/Directors. Creativity, social skills, goal achievement, communication skills and self-esteem are all characteristics that are attained through the participation in this unique, educational project. MCT's mission is the development of lifeskills in children through participation in the performing arts.
