Vicksburg Theatre Guild presents...
Auditions:
Sat. May 11 at 2 p.m. Summer Youth Production directed by Shanna Dixon; assistant director Celeste Cochran; student director Mollie Lafferty Once upon a time, in a far away swamp, there lived an ogre named Shrek. One day, Shrek finds his swamp invaded by banished fairytale misfits who have been cast off by Lord Farquaad, a tiny terror with big ambitions. When Shrek sets off with a wisecracking donkey to confront Farquaad, he's handed a task — if he rescues feisty princess Fiona, his swamp will be righted. Shrek tries to win Fiona’s love and vanquish Lord Farquaad, but a fairytale wouldn't be complete without a few twists and turns along the way. *Not part of the VTG Membership season: tickets must be purchased.
The Summer Youth Production is open to children ages seven through eighteen. Through the Youth Summer Production, children gain experience in many of the areas of theatre such as acting, learning lines, making costumes, helping with set construction, and helping backstage. The Summer Youth Production, established as Fairy Tale Theatre in 1986 by Don and Kathryn Resio, is celebrating its 39th season in 2024. Many of the props and sets have been made by our parents, whose participation is essential to the success of our program. We need interested adults to help in all areas. Information:
