The next generation is stepping into the spotlight!

Auditions for our summer production of Oliver! with Young Roustabouts brought together a room full of young performers ready to learn, take risks, and get to work.

From first audition to final bow, this program gives young artists real process, real training, and a real sense of belonging on stage.

Through focused rehearsal and a collaborative ensemble approach, Young Roustabouts invites students to grow as artists while becoming part of a supportive creative community.

Performances take place June 20–21 at Scripps Ranch Theatre.
