The 2021-2022 Youth Theater Season is filled with entertaining and exciting titles perfect for the entire family.

Things start to look up when they discover an unfinished android in one of the storage units and decide to enter it in an upcoming competition. Unfortunately, it seems they may never get a chance when cosmic events cause the android to act on its own and begin its conquest of the human race! Can our heroes save the day, or will this be their final exam? THE REAL VALKYRIES OF VALHALLA<https://www.beckcenter.org/youth-shows/thereal> Written and Direction by Rachel Spence Studio Theater Join us for this action-packed comedy based on Norse Mythology. Odin, Loki, Thor and other "marvel"-ous characters tell their origin stories through humor, battles, and a little bit of Ragnarok and Roll. Featuring Beck Center's pre-teen actors, these myths will have you laughing all the way to the fjord. Why is Thor's hammer Mjolnir so heavy? Why is Freyja's chariot led by cats? What's up with all these silent j's? These Viking and Valkyrie vignettes will be the most fun you can have during an apocalypse. Fridays, December 10 & 17, 2021, at 7:30 p.m. EST Saturdays, December 11 & 18, 2021, at 7:30 p.m. Sundays, December 12 & 19, 2021, at 3:00 p.m. Student Matinee Thursday, December 16, 2021, 10:00 a.m. DISNEY'S: HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL<https://www.beckcenter.org/youth-shows/highschool> Book by David Simpatico Songs by Bryan Louiselle Faye Greenberg David N.

Basketball team captain, Troy, and the brainy new girl, Gabriella, cause an upheaval when they decide to audition for their high school musical. Although many students resent the threat posed to the "status quo," Troy and Gabriella's alliance might open the door for others to shine as well. Disney's High School Musical is fun for the whole family. BUGSY MALONE<https://www.beckcenter.org/youth-shows/bugsy> Book by Allen Parker Music and Lyrics by Paul Williams Direction and Choreography by Sarah Clare Musical Direction by Heidi Herczeg Senney Theater Fridays, May 6 & 13, 2022, at 7:30 p.m. EST Saturdays, May 7 & 14, 2022, at 7:30 p.m. Sundays, May 8 & 15, 2022, at 3:00 pm Student Matinee: Thursday, May 12, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. Based on the hit 1976 film, and featuring a catchy, swinging score by the composer of The Muppet Movie, Bugsy Malone is good, clean, comedic fun! Two gangs comprised completely of children, square off in a 1920s rivalry of Capone-ian standards. Bugsy Malone, a one-time boxer, is thrust not-so-willingly into the gangster limelight when all he really wants to do is spend time with his new love, Blousey, but that just isn't in the cards for our hero. A master class in musical comedy, this show is a fun escape for adults and children alike! Programming at Beck Center for the Arts is made possible through the generous support of the Ohio Arts Council. Beck Center gratefully acknowledges the generous funding provided by the citizens of Cuyahoga County through Cuyahoga Arts and Culture. Beck Center for the Arts is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 organization that offers professional theater productions on two stages, arts education programming in dance, music, theater, visual arts, early childhood, and creative arts therapies for individuals with disabilities, free gallery exhibits year-round, and outreach education programming. ###
