It is with great sadness to say that our founder, Celeste Rose, has passed. Celeste started The Community Children's Theatre in 1978 and produced, wrote, directed, and adapted over 60 shows in the Eugene/Springfield area and ran several acting classes and puppet shows for the youth in our community.
She turned CCT into a nonprofit organization in 1990 and served our community through her retirement in 2002 and beyond. Celeste touched the lives of so many families and built an incredible legacy that still lives on. Our organization was renamed Rose Children's Theatre in 2006 to honor Celeste and the theatre community she worked so hard to build.
