How to Eat Like A Child


Children’s Theatre Camp Production
Directed by Sandy Slayton

June 13 - 18, 2011 at The Prizery

Here’s a day camp experience full of fun and laughter, as campers take charge of all aspects of the production, How to Eat Like A Child. Kids and parents alike will appreciate the art of being a child in sketches such as “How to Torture your Sister,” How to Beg for a Dog,” and “How to Stay Home from School.” This musical comedy is a real treat for all ages. The camp will run from 9 A.M. to 4 P.M. daily and will feature an opportunity for participants (ages 6 to 16) to ham it up on stage, create sets and costumes, and learn about all that’s involved in putting on a show. Of course, camp will wrap up with weekend performances of all the funny minutes of a child’s life immortalized in the musical. Parents can sign up now to receive further information as registration plans are finalized. The cost for the weeklong, all day program is only $100.00, and whether you’ve never been on stage or you’re a veteran performer, we guarantee you’ll have a great time!

Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird


Directed by Mike Freshour
November 18, 19, 20, 26, 27 8 PM; Sundays, Nov 21 and 28 at 3 PM

Come and celebrate the 50th birthday of this Great American Novel with us! This timeless classic is a story familiar to so many of us. Harper Lee's novel, set in the Depression Era in the deep South, portrays the ugliness of injustice and racism in a small southern town, as seen through the eyes of a child. It's a story that is in turns tender, explosive, and heartbreaking.

Almost, Maine


Directed by Martin Beekman
Weekends: February 18, 19, 24, 25, and 26 at 8 PM and February 20 at 3 PM

In the snowy cold night of a northern winter, something magical is happening in this mythical town.  People are falling in and out of love with hilarious and often poignant results. These interwoven stories of magical moments and how we deal with those overwhelming feelings will bring back memories of romantic moments in your own past. Come and share again for a minute the desperate elation of falling in love, the sting of lost love, the comfort of quiet moments in a familiar embrace, and the pure joy of unexpected love.

Crowns, Adapted by Regina Taylor


Directed by Chris Jones, Musical Direction by Chris Oliver
April  14, 15, 16, 19, 21, 22, and 23 at 8 PM, and April 17 and 24 at 3 PM

With spirituals, blues, rap, and hip hop music, and an exuberant gospel style, Crowns takes us through a young woman's journey as she recovers from a family tradegy in the home of her grandmother. Although she feels alienated from these old-fashioned Southern women,  finding her roots leads to healing. An award winning musical presented in every major city in the U.S., Crowns is an uplifting look at  cultural history, a tribute to the fabulous church hats worn by African American women. Their hats symbolize defining moments and events experienced by  these strong and powerful women. With soulful, spiritual and joyful music, they celebrate family and faith, love and loss, seeking (and finding) one’s true identity. From the powerful "His Eye is On The Sparrow" to the hilarious "Don't Touch The Hat", you'll be uplifted and swept away by every minute of Crowns.

"I'd lend my children before I'd lend my hats. I know my children know their way home."  -Now THAT's "hattitude".
