Children’s Arts Program

Old Academy Players Children’s Arts Program

Music, Movement and Acting for Kids Ages 8 — 14*

Old Academy Players’ Children’s Arts Program introduces kids to the joys of theater with hands-on exploration and learning about acting, musical theater and dance. Three days of discovery and rehearsal are transformed into a “Showcase Performance” presented on the Old Academy main stage for thrilled parents, family and friends.


Dates and information for 2025 coming soon…


In the pictures below, CAP participants performed an adaptation of Annie! Sets and costumes were designed and developed with the input of the kids by Joan and Randy Shupp. Musical direction by Jane Jennings, choreography by Terri Bateman, and scene coaching by Susan Lonker.
