Countryside is starting a youth theater group this Fall called LIT (Light-Inspired Theater)!

We would love for your student(s) participate! We will hold auditions for speaking and singing roles at the September 8 rehearsal. If your child is not interested in an acting role or solo, they can choose to be in the Ensemble Chorus or the Stage Crew. We will have so much fun learning about all the aspects of theater together, and each rehearsal will have a scripture devotion and snack time. Please bring $10 per child on September 8 to help cover the cost of a show t-shirt, snacks and supplies.
