What’s On Stage
Showcasing past and present CTA talent, fun holiday snacks and games, along with a visit from Santa and his bag of gifts, this promises to be a wonderful and joyous holiday celebration.
A Midsummer Night’s Dream explores the complexities of love, the power of imagination, and the interplay between reality and illusion, all wrapped in Shakespeare’s signature wit and poetic language. It remains one of his most beloved and enduring comedies, captivating audiences with its enchanting blend of romance, humor, and the magical world of fairies.
Disney’s The Descendants, The Musical. May 3 – 19, 2024.
Based on the popular Disney Channel Original Movies, Disney’s Descendants: The Musical is a brand-new musical jam-packed with comedy, adventure, Disney characters, and hit songs from the films!
Imprisoned on the Isle of the Lost – home of the most infamous villains who ever lived – the teenaged children of Maleficent, the Evil Queen, Jafar, and Cruella De Vil have never ventured off the island… until now. When the four troublemakers are sent to attend prep school alongside the children of beloved Disney heroes, they have a difficult choice to make: should they follow in their parents’ wicked footsteps or learn to be good?
