Summer Camp Spotlight: Sunrise Theatre

Missoula Children's Theatre Camp

April 26, 2013
Publisher's Note: We are proud to present the following camp as a sponsor of Macaroni Kid PSL.

The Sunrise Theatre, along with the Sunrise Theatre Foundation will host four (4) separate, week-long children’s summer programs conducted by the Missoula Children’s Theatre (MCT). The weeks culminate in public performances of each session, starring local children, complete with professionally designed scenery and costumes. These are sure-to-please, feel-good...fun for the entire family… and performances you won’t want to miss! 

Through the Sunrise Theatre and MCT, and the help of the Sunrise Theatre Foundation, media partners, volunteers and sponsors, our young children and teens will develop a love and appreciation of the arts...for life! Now that is priceless!
