New York City
Creativity, social skills, goal achievement, communication skills and self-esteem are all characteristics that are attained when a child participates in this unique and educational project. Over the last 30 years, MCT performing programs have evolved into a rewarding experience for children: A team of two professional actors/directors arrive at the Theater with a set, costumes, props and make-up…everything it takes to put on a play – except the cast. Fifty to sixty local students, grades K-12, are cast and well rehearsed throughout the week, learning lines, songs and choreography to perform in a full-length musical. This week-long residency begins with a group audition and culminates in two fully produced public performances of The Little Mermaid at the Theater.
