HCCT's Youth Summer Theatre Program Presents ANNIE JR.

This summer, the Hill Country Community Theatre's Youth Summer Theatre Program will produce the musical, "Annie Jr.", book by Thomas Meehan, music by Charles Strouse, and lyrics by Martin Charnin. This year's program has expanded.

"Students will learn the fundamentals of acting while rehearsing and presenting a full musical," said Mike Rademaekers, the theatre's executive director. "All the kids who are accepted into the program will be cast in a role and perform on our stage for live audiences. It is going to be an awesome experience for them!"

Due to the success of last year's program, when the theatre produced "Alice in Wonderland, Jr.", this year's program has broadened. It will still run for two weeks, but will start at 10:00 AM. Students will be asked to pack a lunch.

HCCT is now taking applications for admission.

The program runs from, June 11 through June 24, Monday through Friday 10:00 AM. to 4:30 p.m. If accepted, the price of the program is $295 per student, ages 8 to 17.

There will be four public performances of "Annie Jr." - Thursday, June 21 and Friday, June 22 at 6:00 PM, and Saturday, June 23 and Sunday, June 24 at 2:15 PM on the Hill Country Community Theatre stage.

For an application, call the theatre at (830) 693-2474, or email director@theHCCT.org.
