The L/A Community Little Theatre 2024 summer musical theater productions will be held this weekend with performances July 19-21. The youth camp musical of “James and the Giant Peach, Jr.” will be presented at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, July 19, and at 2 p.m. on Saturday, July 20. The teen camp production of “Beauty and the Beast, Jr.” will take the stage on at 7 p.m. on Saturday, July 20, at 2 p.m. on Sunday, July 21.
These two productions culminate four weeks of intensive, performance-based programs. Campers were responsible for mastering the material (lines, staging, choreography, and singing), and participating in rehearsals. The youth camp is for children in grades 4-7 and participants in the teen camp are in grades 8-12. Maddy DuBois and Maria Groover directed the youth camp and Linda Vaillancourt led the teen camp. Jackie McDonald is the producer for both shows.
Tickets are $25 for adults, $22 for seniors and students, and $17 for children under the age of 13. Prices include all taxes and fees. Tickets are available online at laclt.com/box-office-1 and may also be purchased at the door. All productions will be held at CLT on 30 Academy Street in Auburn.
