The Cheverly Young Actors' Guild is a nonprofit organization which "was formed in 1995 by parents seeking to offer local youth professional training and performance opportunities in the magical world of the dramatic arts." Each year they put on a full-scale production at the Cheverly Publick Playhouse. All the actors are local children ages 4-17 and the young thespians are accompanied by a professional orchestra as well as fabulous sets and costumes. This year's production of Annie even features a live Sandy! More than 100 kids have been rehearsing for months under professional directors and choreographers. The curtain goes up tomorrow and closes Sunday evening. I can't think of a better way to introduce children to live theater than this!

Oh I am so sad that we missed this! The Publick Playhouse sounds like a very affordable way to expose LMT and CC to the performing arts. Please let us know of upcoming shows!
