2019 Season Update
We’re pleased to announce our 2019 summertime lineup.
Newsies
Our first big Amphitheater show, Newsies, will play in June. Directed and choreographed by Susan DeMill, with Tricia Swanson as music director, this rousing tale of a ragged band of teenage newsboys taking on the titans of publishing is full of great music (score by Alan Menken) and spectacular dancing. Newsies will run June 1, 3, 7, 8, 10, 14, and 15.
| Performances | June 1, 3, 7, 8, 10, 14, 15 at Draper Amphitheater |
Broadway Kidz
Director Kevin McClellan brings back fan favorite Broadway Kidz for its 21st installment, where dozens of youngsters will get their first experience with a stage show, and an introduction to the Broadway tradition. BK runs July 26, 27, 29 at the Amphitheater. Auditions will be held May 16-18, scheduled by age group, for kids age 6 through 18. Full details will be sent via email to subscribers and posted to this website but here are some things to be aware of:
