CORINTH — This summer, Adirondack Center Stage (ACS) will be celebrating its 15th year of theatre productions for kids in Corinth and the Southern Adirondack region. Their summer theatre program for youth ages 8-18 is bringing “Shrek the Musical” to the Corinth High School stage on the weekend of July 29 and 30 at 7pm and July 31 at 2pm. Local artists serve as musicians, directors, costumers, choreographers and designers.
In August of 2018, Adirondack Center Stage formed as a non-profit organization to best serve the needs of the community. The program respects the abilities of all children, giving each a place to be valued for what they have to offer and gives participants the opportunity to act, sing, dance, paint sets, run technical equipment and help backstage crew. Learning team-work and problem-solving skills, as well as gaining the concept of cooperation through various project activities, students work under the guidance of a caring, talented and professional staff. The modest tuition for the program includes student scripts, tee shirts, costumes, and a show ticket, with financial assistance available to any students requesting it.
Saratoga Arts made this program possible through the Community Arts Regrant Program, funded by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature. Please send donations to: Adirondack Center Stage, P.O. Box 53, Corinth, NY 12822 or go to the website: www.adkcenterstage.org. All tickets are $10. For tickets and information, call 518-744-7396.
