February 26: Off Square Youth Musical
In February of each year, Off Square Theatre produces the Mike & Jean Louise Thieme Youth Musical with a professional creative team and a cast of students in grades 3-12.
The youth musical maintains professional standards during rehearsals and performances and features elaborate design components. Participation in the musical offers the chance for our local youth to put what they learn in the classroom into practice on stage. It gives students a supportive hands-on environment to hone theatrical skills like public speaking, listening, problem solving, collaboration within a group, risk taking, and movement/coordination. This program allows children of all ages to work together, make new friends, build leadership skills, and gain confidence at a crucial time in their development.
