Children's Theater at CCArts presents Beauty and the Beast
for young actors, ages 6-14. Auditions and rehearsals begin January 22;
register in advance and plan to attend the production March 26, 2011, 2PM. This
will be the second performance of this new program. The first show, Aladdin and
the Wonderful Lamp, was proudly performed by nine young actors in December for
an enthusiastic crowd. As one visitor commented, "This was the highlight
of my week; no month!" The actors' charm and wit were matched by beautiful
costumes and sets, all to the credit of directors Lara Michele and Sue Sodomin.

CCArts is also available for birthday parties, special
events, studio rentals and customized arts experiences. For additional
information call 302-239-2434, visit www.ccarts.org

The Center for the Creative Arts is the place for you to “Find the Artist
Within.” Check class listings for specific dates and times, and take advantage
