The ATC REP Company brings together the most talented young musical theatre actors who have proven themselves ready to handle professional level performances typically reserved for adult actors. The cast includes young actors from many of Chicago's Northern suburbs and includes Emma Flannery and Sophie Lieberman both of Wilmette, Nicole Karkasis of Lake Forest, Elita Ernsteen and Jacob Simon both of Deerfield, Seth Steinberg of Evanston and twin siblings Frankie and Gracie Nayman of Winnetka.
"The concept of young actors performing for young audiences was a goal of mine when I created ATC", says founder and artistic director, Carole Dibo.
For the young audience, ATC REP Company provided a unique opportunity to watch professional-level, Live Theatre. For the young actor, ATC provides professional-level, process-driven classes for children and teens of all ages, from kindergarten through 12th grade.
