What is RCT’s Performance Group?

The RCT Performance Group is an elite group of young performers, aged 13 - 21, who desire to further hone their craft through preparation for both solo and ensemble performances. The group is formed on an audition basis and is limited in size in order to maximize each performer’s opportunities within the group.

Who should audition for RCT’s Performance Group?

Any performer age 13 - 21 who:
- Would like more opportunities to perform individually and as part of an ensemble
- Would like to hone their skills in vocal performance, acting, and dance through one-on-one instruction with our professional staff
- Would like to augment their artistic resume through membership in an elite group

2023-2024 Session Theme and Performances

Our theme this session is Today’s Hits, Yesterday’s Favorites! We are defining this as songs from 1980’s to present. Songs can be from popular culture or musical theatre genre. We will also have a special set of Miscast musical numbers in our show. This session’s culmination will be a performance at RCT’s annual “A Night at the Theatre” event on January 27th, 2024. As we build up to this capstone event, there may also be additional performance opportunities for the group through the fall.

Rehearsals and Time Commitment

Rehearsals will generally be held one evening per week depending upon performer availability. Not all group members will be needed at every rehearsal. Additional rehearsals will be held the weeks prior to scheduled performances. Additional performance opportunities often arise within the community and we will assess the group’s availability and schedule as they are presented.
