Great program!! I have done shows with RCT and have always had so much fun. RCT is a great program to help kids get into theater, learn to use their stage voices, and be creative. So much fun

When i became apart of the rose childrens theatre community it really became a big part of my life! everyone is so kind and supportive and giving children the gift of performing is priceless. the atmosphere is very welcoming and warm, but also gives children a chance to learn what being on a stage is really like! the directors, cast, and crew are always so amazing. if you are a parent of a child that loves to sing, dance, or act, do your child a favor by introducing them to Rose Children's Theatre!
