A little info about our program: The Twinsburg Youth & Community Theatre was founded in 1996 to bring performing arts to the community of Twinsburg. While it started as a youth theater to give the area's children an avenue to experience live stage performance, it is transitioning into a community theater due to the overwhelming interest of the area's adults to perform as well. In its 14th season, this program has enjoyed incredible community support and success. Each year, this theater program puts on a main stage production in the Twinsburg HIgh School Auditorium. There are usually at least 100 cast members. This year's production of </FONT><FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Geneva" FAMILY="SANSSERIF" SIZE="2"><U>Annie</U></FONT><FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Geneva" FAMILY="SANSSERIF" SIZE="2"> is no exception. There are 115 cast members (90 youth & 25 adults). The interest keeps growing and, for the last several years, we have had between 200-250 people at auditions. Last year's production of </FONT><FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Geneva" FAMILY="SANSSERIF" SIZE="2"><U>Willy Wonka Jr.</U></FONT><FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Geneva" FAMILY="SANSSERIF" SIZE="2"> had nearly 3,000 audience members over the two week run of 6 performances. This year's production of </FONT><FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Geneva" FAMILY="SANSSERIF" SIZE="2"><U>Annie</U></FONT><FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Geneva" FAMILY="SANSSERIF" SIZE="2"> will run for 3 weekends with a total of 8 performances. <BR>

We are fairly new to Neohiopal and certainly appreciate the benefits that it offers to the performing arts community. It is our hope that our Neohiopal friends can help us out with our need for a wheelchair for the President Roosevelt character and, possibly, the baby buggy from the 1930's.<BR>
