Now in our eighth year, the Penguin Project at Clark Youth Theatre offers not only theatre, but also fun and friends! Artists with disabilities and their volunteer peer mentors gather each year to present a fully staged musical like Aladdin, Jr., The Music Man, Jr., Seussical, Jr., The Little Mermaid, Jr., or The Lion King, Jr.! No previous experience required, just a willingness to show up and participate in the fun. Weekly rehearsals culminate in a full performance in the spring or early summer.

Artists and volunteer Mentors should be ages 10 and up, with some exceptions if space is available in the program, and parents are very welcome to attend and get to know each other – we love our parent volunteers! During the 2022-2023 season, our Penguin Project rehearsals will be in person at Clark Youth Theatre. For the third straight year, we will have both a live and livestream option to watch our showcase production this year!

Don’t forget Clark Youth Theatre for all of your youth theatre programming needs!  In addition to the Penguin Project, we offer a full range of free-to-participate theatre productions, Saturday Classes, Homeschool Classes on Tuesday and Thursday, and 12 weeks of Summer, Fall and Spring Break Camp!  For more information, call 918-596-1412 or visit www.clarkyouththeatre.com.
