Tickets ($8) are available beginning February 5 at www.wcparksandrec.com.
WCPR’s Rising Stars program is a wonderful training ground for young performers ages 5 through 8th grade. Rising Stars produces two full-scale musical productions each year in an effort to give younger actors the skills and opportunity to be on stage in leading roles. Additionally, several Broadway style intensives/camps are offered each summer along with workshops hosted by seasoned professionals in the performing arts industry.
