Spotlight on Spotlight Community Theatre
My teenage daughter’s spirit has been sparked and nourished by discovering our local Spotlight Community Theatre this year.
She wanted to share her experience, in hopes of inspiring another spirit to be sparked and nourished.
In her own words:
“Hi, my name is Audrey and I’m here to shine a little light on Spotlight Community Theatre.
I will tell you about my journey, how much I love Spotlight, and how much I’m going to be doing it this summer.
When I first started Spotlight, I didn’t know what to do and I didn’t know who I was going to meet.
I auditioned at a Festus church for my ATS (Acting Troupe Showcase) play. I practiced with the sides they provided online. Sides are basically little skits you do to try out. Then they showed the cast list like a week later.
It doesn’t matter if you get a big part or not, you’re still going to have a bunch of fun. I promise you, we just have so much fun!
This summer I’m going to be doing the Teen Showcase. The Teen Showcase is for ages 13 to 18. It’s like a talent show. I am going to be doing a solo dance that I am choreographing! I’m very excited about it.
In June, I will be trying out for Newsies, which is for ages 6 to 13.
Spotlight Community Theatre is also putting on Oklahoma, which is for ages 14 and up.
You can sign up for these on their website. Please do it, it will be the highlight of your summer. I promise you that.
Everyone is sooo nice and so friendly there. They have a NO BULLYING tolerance. So if you’re a bully, I suggest you stay out!! You can join in from any school district or be homeschooled. Before I participated in the ATS play, I barely knew anyone from different schools. Now, I am super close friends with at least 10 of them.
I hope you chose to come to Spotlight or come to watch the entertaining shows! Thank you!”
