Mini Kids Musical

Disney’s 101 Dalmatians KIDS

Ages 6-10

Our popular musical productions are always fun and educational. We begin with relationship building, drama games, and singing the music. Casting will happen in early in the process so we can maximize time for learning lines and blocking. We want all participants to have a blast and be challenged by their experience!

Our musical rehearsal process allows for many hours of coaching and guidance in:

  • acting/performing

  • singing and dancing

  • theatrical protocols

  • confidence

NEW ACTORS

We welcome new actors! However, being part of a show is a commitment and can be overwhelming for some children. To register for this program, actors must have previously enrolled in an actOUT! class, camp, or production.

If your child has some experience with another organization or at school, please contact us to discuss at info@actoutkw.com .

COMMITMENT AND EXPECTATIONS

Attendance is an important part of the rehearsal process. Actors work as an ensemble and rely on one another to be there. If an actor will be missing multiple rehearsals or any time during Show Week, they should not register for the program. Show Week for this production requires one weekday performance.

Please review our

All eligible registrants will be accepted provided payment has been received, or payment arrangements have been made, and the participant and their parent/legal guardian have completed our online Info Form/Waiver and signed our Actor’s Agreement. Payment plans can be arranged via our Treasurer if needed. We strive to provide a welcoming and safe environment to all children and youth regardless of gender, sex, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, religion, socioeconomic status, neurodiversity, and physical ability.

Disney’s classic animated tale of kidnapping villains and courageous puppies is adapted in this "fur-tastic" musical adventure.

Based on the classic animated film, Disney's 101 Dalmatians KIDS is a fur-raising adventure featuring Cruella De Vil, Disney's most outrageous villain, and 101 of the most adorable heroes to set their paws onstage. With a high-spirited score and lovable characters, this stage adaptation is certain to charm and delight all audiences.

Pet owners, Roger and Anita, live happily in London with their Dalmatians, Pongo and Perdita, stalwart dogs devoted to raising their puppies. Everything is quiet until Anita's former classmate, the monstrous Cruella De Vil, plots to steal the puppies for her new fur coat. The Dalmatians rally all the dogs of London for a daring rescue of the puppies from Cruella and her bumbling henchmen.

Disney’s 101 Dalmatians KIDS is to be presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI.
