Children’s Musical Theatre Workshop begins June 13th.
Final preparations are underway for next week’s Children’s Musical Theatre workshop production of Disney’s 101 Dalmatians KIDS
The workshop is sponsored by The Donna Reed Foundation.
“We’re excited that things are getting back to normal,” said Denison High School (DHS) language arts teacher Laurel Olsen, who is the workshop director.
“With COVID, we had one year off, and last year's numbers were down a little bit.”
About 50 kids have signed up, so far.
“We just had a meeting today (Monday) to finalize some of the details,” she said.
“We’re getting ready to roll.”
Some activities, such as sizing costumes and painting the set, can’t take place until the students arrive.
Olsen said she isn’t in a 24-hour-a-day mode for the project – yet. “But you do sort of have it running in the back of your head all the time,” she said. “I’m starting to feel a little more comfortable with it because it’s the fourth season I’ve directed it, which makes it a little less nerve-racking.”
