GILT Jr. Children's Theatre Program

As part of our mission to not only “enlighten” and “entertain”, we host an annual week-long summer camp for children who have recently completed 3rd-8th grade. GILT Jr. was established in 2015 to “educate” children about all aspects of theatre. They attend classes and workshops, get hands-on experience, and finish out the week with a performance in front of a live audience. All GILT Jr. staff are certified teachers from Grand Island and the surrounding areas. This year's show is "On the Other Side of the Fence," a musical comedy by Andrea Green. GILT Jr. is back, and we are excited to see everyone in person again this year! Throughout the week, kids will prepare to perform in this year's show while also attending classes and workshops that teach them about other aspects of theatre, such as basic theatrical makeup, audition preparation, character creation, some singing/choreography, and more.
