The County Seat Theater is full of life this summer as nearly 150 young actors put on their best act. The summer youth theater camp program is nearing the end of its four-week session on musical theater.
Each week of theater camp ends with a show, "Off Their Rockers," which takes place in a senior center where all is quiet and calm until the center director decides to use music and dance to bring fun and excitement into the lives of the seniors. Each week, 30 new students dance and sing to the delight of family and friends.
The final performances are Thursday, July 14 at 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. Shows are open to the public. Tickets can be purchased at http://www.countyseattheater.com.
Soon after, the theater will begin production of a show featuring slightly older actors ages 12-21 in "Game of Myths." Greek gods learn that the Cloud Throne is up for grabs, with Zeus declaring the coveted throne will go to the do-gooder who's the most helpful, compassionate, and caring. As all the gods gather in the final scene for an Academy Awards-style show, how will Zeus decide among so many good deeds done? We find that old habits die hard in this fun tale of mythological creatures, mere mortals, and (mostly) good gods full of goodwill and grace.
Performances of "Game of Myths" will be Friday, July 22 at 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. and they are open to the public as well. Both camps are full and registration is now closed. Openings remain for the Bee Friendly Arts Camp. Visit http://www.countyseattheater.com to sign up.
