Our Joan B. Kroc theatre is home to Kroc Junior Theatre, a performing arts group that nurtures the aspiring actor in children 8-18. The goal of Kroc Junior Theatre is to promote strong leadership and character through the participation of students by producing professional quality productions and to learn every aspect of theatre arts in a positive Christ-centered community.
This class will introduce students to the basics of playwriting and story structure. Participants will learn how to write 3-dimensional characters with clear goals through writing exercises, active games, and looking at examples in professionally written plays and movies. Each student will leave the class having written and revised their own 5-10 minute play.

THE ADDAMS FAMILY, a comical feast that embraces the wackiness in every family, features an original story and it’s every father’s nightmare: Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family– a man her parents have never met. And if that wasn’t upsetting enough, Wednesday confides in her father and begs him not to tell her mother. Now, Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before– keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia. Everything will change for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s “normal” boyfriend and his parents..
