Missoula Children’s Theatre will make a stop in Pauls Valley later this month, offering local children the opportunity to perform in a production of “The Princess and the Pea.”
The MCT touring residency program has been a recurring event in Pauls Valley since 1996. Currently sponsored by Pauls Valley Public Schools, it offers area children the unique opportunity to participate in a full-scale musical production featuring a local cast of between 50 and 60 children. MCT touring productions are cast, rehearsed and performed all in the span of one week.
The program is open to all students in the Pauls Valley and Whitebead school districts, as well as homeschooled students who reside in those districts.
Open auditions will be held Monday, Jan. 22, at 3:45 p.m. at the Bosa Community Center, 207 Bosa Ave.
Rehearsals will begin immediately following auditions and will continue each afternoon through Thursday.
Children cast in the production will need to be present at all rehearsals scheduled for their parts.
Public performances of “The Princess and the Pea” will be at the Pauls Valley High School Auditorium, 601 North Street, Friday, Jan. 26, at 7 p.m. and Saturday, Jan. 27, at 2 p.m.
Admission is free, and donations are appreciated.
