November, 2010
by Jared West
The Fullerton Children’s Repertory Theater has provided North Orange County’s youth with rewarding experiences in American musical theater since 1983. The Fullerton Children’s Repertory Theater encourages area fifth through eighth graders to audition for the theater’s summer and winter Broadway shows, which are produced by directors Vicki Schindele and Brian and Lauren Johnson. Approximately 50 members participate in each show, and productions last for eight performances over three weekends. The Fullerton Children’s Repertory Theater uses a professional paid staff, including former members, now teenagers, who act as technical crew. At Fullerton Children’s Repertory Theater, children play all the roles while parents support their children’s efforts in any way possible. Read more at www.fcrtcompany.com.
