The 2011 St. Thomas Youth Group Summer Theater is about to begin for the fourteenth year! The goal of our summer theater program is to provide young people with a fun, safe vacation-season activity, in addition to learning the many aspects of theatrical production (whether on stage, backstage, or in the orchestra pit), while offering audiences a rousing, colorful, tune-filled entertainment spectacular starring our own young friends, neighbors and loved ones. This is accomplished through hard but fun work, rehearsing and building sets and scenery, several nights a week over a seven-week period from June through early August.
This summer we will be performing "OLIVER! " on August 12, 13 & 14. This production is open to youths in 7th grade through first year of college for leads, supporting parts, chorus, orchestra and stage crew.
Summer Theater auditions for lead parts only are scheduled for Monday, May 16th, and Tuesday, May 17th, 2011, in the Monsignor Smith Auditorium from 7 to 9 PM, with call-backs scheduled for Wednesday, May 18th. Registration for those parts, as well as supporting roles, ensemble, orchestra pit and stage crew, will be held on Tuesday, June 7th, 2011, at 7 PM in the Monsignor Smith Auditorium.
