Now in our ninth 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 early part of 2024 – informational meetings happening soon!

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 2023-2024 season, our Penguin Project rehearsals will be in person at Clark Youth Theatre. We can’t wait to see all of our Penguin friends thrive on stage!

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 clarkyouththeatre.com.
