Our GoalThe primary goal of CharACTers is to promote cultural curiosity. We want our performances to make a connection to the mind, heart and spirit of our audiences; creating and stimulating a hunger for the experiences only achieved through the arts. As a theatre group in the community, CharACTers largely depends on the commitment and dedication of its many volunteers who donate their time and talent on stage and behind the scenes, from actors and stage crew to box office attendants and family members. This blend of actors, staff and community volunteers allows CharACTers to achieve its goal of providing enjoyable entertainment. Each production consist of all volunteers, a combination of young and old, first time actors and very skilled and seasoned actors. You can be sure that any involvement will produce great pride in the end result. As you may be aware, theatre can be beneficial for the youth of our community and their families in many ways: by developing their self confidence and imaginations, teaching them the techniques of drama and dance, motivating them to learn about their community and become more involved citizens. |

CCT began as an experiment in 2011 with a production of Disney's The Aristocats, KIDS. With enormous success, we decided to branch out from our mother company, CharACTers Theatrics, and offer more youth centered productions that were just for students. Soon after closing our third production in 2012, we learned of the Junior Theatre Festival in Atlanta, GA. Intrigued, we started a small festival team that would represent the children's theatre at the festival. Not expecting much, we ended up taking home high honors, the Excellence in Ensemble award for our very first year. Attending this festival has become an annual event for us. In 2022, we will celebrate our 10th season. We now offer multiple shows, classes, workshops, and various performance opportunities for students of all ages. We hope to see you at the show! |
