Participants will learn a play and perform it in 2 weeks. Our focus is students entering 6th to 12th grade, but other ages may be considered on a case-by-case basis. The program is open to any student of any district or homeschooled, not just Dowagiac students. We plan to allow every student who auditions to be included in the show. If we have more participants than performing roles, some roles will be shared. Backstage and production assignments are available for those who are not interested in performing. This program is designed to be a low-stress introduction to theatre. Beginners are encouraged to join.

There will be opportunities for actors, stage crew, lights/sound, costumes, etc. Please spread the word. We hope to see you there!

Thanks to our partnership with Educational Talent Search, participation in this program is absolutely free.

The Marshall County Historical Society is sponsoring a Brown Bag Lunch & Lecture Event on Friday, June 13th, from Noon – 1:00 p.m. Culver historians Jeff Kenney and The Very Rev. Dr. John Houghton will present a fascinating look at the “Little Known Ladies of Culver.”
Whether it's an international aeronautics pioneer, an Alabama librarian who took a nationally-recognized stand against racism, a Potawatomi woman who heavily influenced equal rights for women and men in her tribe, or an infamous serial killer or mystery women who may have created new lives with secrets left behind, chances are you've never heard of at least some of these Culver-area women who led unusual lives.
