Theatre Cedar Rapids

Join us for our annual Summer Youth Production! Students in grades 8-recently graduated seniors will explore every step of the theatrical process: from auditions to the thrill of opening night. 

Title: The Next Generation Follies: TCR's 100 Year Remix

Celebrate a century of show-stopping theatre in this high-energy summer revue performed by our rising stars. Journey through the songs, stories, and spectacle that have shaped the TCR stage for generations. You’ll catch unforgettable moments inspired by Broadway classics like West Side Story, Fiddler on the Roof, and Anything Goes, alongside vibrant modern favorites such as Once on This Island and the crown-stealing queens of Six.

But the celebration doesn’t stop there. This follies-style spectacular pulls back the curtain on a full century of musical theatre magic, blending beloved classics, contemporary hits, and plenty of surprise showcases along the way.

Big voices. Bold choreography. One hundred years of theatre, all in one dazzling night.

Rehearsals run from June 15-August 14 from 1-4PM, with performances on August 17th and 18th at 7:30PM. (There will be no class the week of July 6th-10th in observance of the 4th of July Holiday.)
