Van Wert Civic Theatre offers summer youth theatre

Van Wert Civic Theatre is offering three opportunities for youth in the area to perform on stage. This summer VWCT offers two shows for children ages 5 -18 and one show for high school and college age youth. On May 19 and 20 youth auditioned for “Disney Frozen, Jr.” This musical will take the stage on June 21, 22, and 23. Emily Gehle is the director for “Frozen, Jr.”

The other show for school age children is the play “Little Red: Life in the Hood.” This show is not a musical. Director Monica Campbell will hold auditions on June 16 and 17 at 7:00 p.m. This quirky fairy tale twist will take the stage on July 19, 20, and 21. There are roles for youth of all ages and experience levels.  

The high school, college age production will be “You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown.”  Griffin Waltmire, director, and Dee Fisher, music director, held auditions on May 29 and 30. “Charlie Brown” will perform August 2, 3, 4.
