Summer Theater plays begin this weekend

July 5, 2016

by Mary Fioravanti Looking for a fun activity for the family and kids this weekend? Come see the musicals “101 Dalmatians” and “School House Rock” presented this Thursday July 7t, Friday July 8, and Saturday 9 by the Bonners Ferry Summer Theater Youth Group. These will be the only three days the musicals show, so don’t miss the chance to go support these blossoming actors and actresses. The performances start at 7:00 p.m. each night in the Becker Auditorium. Tickets will be sold at the door and cost $5 for kids and $8 for adults. “101 Dalmatians” and “School House Rock” will be performed by the younger kids, while the upcoming musical “Back to the 80’s” will be presented by the junior and high school students in about three weeks over the last weekend of July. “101 Dalmatians” is the Disney play with the adorable puppies that we all know and love, and “School House Rock” is a compilation of catchy songs that kids grow up with when learning about our American culture. Each of the productions has about 20 performers who have been dedicated and practicing since April to making the shows fantastic. All of the kids in every show have been working hard to make the shows look seamless and wonderful. Each production has lots of dancing and singing to make the shows lively and fun. These young performers’ hard work has paid off to make entertaining productions. They hope that the community comes to support them on the stage this Thursday, Friday, and Saturday night!
