YOUTH THEATRE REGISTRATION UNDERWAY The Youth Theatre of Central Arkansas is accepting registration for its upcoming summer program. The Youth Theatre offers unique, creative, theatrical experiences for students entering grades 3 through 12 and is sponsored by UCA Theatre and the UCA Theatre Foundation. Dates for the program are June 22 through July 16 with a mandatory parent meeting on Friday, June 19 at 4:30 pm in the Bridges/Larson Theatre of the Snow Fine Arts Center on the UCA campus. Any student entering grades 3-12 is eligible to attend regardless of any previous theatrical experience. The Youth Theatre is under the direction of Ruthann Curry Browne. Students who participate will present a play on July 15 and 16 at 7:00 pm in the Bridges/Larson Theatre. Students interested in technical theatre are also encouraged to participate and may work backstage in a number of capacities including stage managing, light board operators, props, or other technical areas. Because students will immediately audition and begin rehearsals, only those students who can attend all rehearsals and performances from June 22 through July 16 are encouraged to register. The Youth Theatre is divided into two separate groups. The junior group consists of students entering grades 3-6 and will meet Monday through Friday from 9:00 am to noon. The senior group is made up of students entering grades 7-12 and will meet Monday through Friday from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm. Each group will present its own play on July 15 and 16. Fees are $275 per student if paid on or before June 12, 2009. Fees for students registering between June 13 and June 19 are $300. Due to the nature of the rehearsal process, students may not participate after June 22. Refund and cancellation policies are included on the registration form. Registration forms and further information are available by calling Liz Parker, Youth Theatre Coordinator at 501-450-5092 or email LizP@uca.edu. Information and forms are also available on UCA Theatre's web site. Log on to www.uca.edu/theatre and click on the Youth Theatre link.
