Theatre Tulsa Academy Will Present Disney's 101 DALMATIONS KIDS

Theatre Tulsa Academy will continue its 2023 education program with a full production of Disney's "101 Dalmatians KIDS".

Theatre Tulsa Academy is an interactive theatre training program for youth. The course trains students on the essentials of musical theatre - auditioning, acting, vocal music, dance, and more.

Based on the classic animated film, Disney's "101 Dalmatians KIDS" is a fur-raising adventure featuring Cruella De Vil, Disney's most outrageous villain, and 101 of the most adorable heroes to set their paws onstage. Pet owners, Roger and Anita, live happily in London with their Dalmatians, Pongo and Perdita, stalwart dogs devoted to raising their puppies. Everything is quiet until Anita's former classmate, the monstrous Cruella De Vil, plots to steal the puppies for her new fur coat. The Dalmatians rally all the dogs of London for a daring rescue of the puppies from Cruella and her bumbling henchmen. With a high-spirited score and lovable characters, this stage adaptation is certain to charm and delight all audiences.

The company will also provide a low-sensory adaptation of the show. Theatre Tulsa is committed to offering sensory-friendly youth programming for people with social and cognitive disabilities, primarily for families with neurodivergent children. The additional performance will be held Sunday, May 14, at 11 a.m.

A sensory-friendly performance involves adapting technical aspects of a performance to provide a low-stimulation experience that minimizes any sounds, lighting effects, or onstage action that may trigger a negative response. An American Sign Language interpreter will also be at the adaptive performance to provide signing services to any hearing-impaired audiences.

The Theatre Tulsa Academy series of shows features youth-oriented and "junior" versions of popular musicals as a supplement to Theatre Tulsa's regular season of mainstage shows. Theatre Tulsa Academy produces four additional works per season.

The production is directed and music directed by Karlena Riggs, and choreographed by Joelle Galapate.

Performances will be May 12-14 in the Williams Theatre of the Tulsa Performing Arts Center. Evening showtimes on May 12 and 13 are at 7:30 pm. Matinees on May 13 and 14 will be at 2 p.m. The adapted performance for neurodivergent audiences will be May 22 at 11 a.m. Tickets are available at Click Here or by calling 918-596-7111.
