Students build on all the great performance fundamentals that are taught in the classroom, then put those skills into practice for an audience as part of the cast for a full-scale production on Raue Center’s main stage! Past productions include A Christmas Carol: A Holiday Pantomime, Seussical Kids, and Seussical Jr.
