O, the places we perform...

Performing is an essential part of our theatre and music education programs! Performing in front of an audience teaches students (young and old) preparation through practice, memorization skills, self confidence, self reliance and that the show must go on despite mistakes!

Creative Arts hosts monthly performance nights and is often asked to provide live entertainment at local events.
Recently, the Reading Chamber of Commerce asked us to perform at their annual Outstanding Citizen Award gala. During a very loud cocktail hour, the Traveling Theatre Troupe and several advanced music students performed.

Traveling Theatre Troupe performs The Nose (a scene from Roxanne) for attendees

Jenny List as The Nose

'Audience' to The Nose as he and his nemesis try to out-do each other by coming up with the most nose jokes - all to win a kiss from a lovely lady (wearing green above).

Ian Furst (student of Lee Hadden) performs

Nathan Furst (student of Lee Hadden) performing

Taylor Aspeslagh and Ryan Taylor added to the evening's music on keyboard (sorry no picture). The audio system was a bit of a bust but they were good sports and performed despite sub-optimal conditions. Thank you to parents and students for performing!

Upcoming performance opportunities:
June 9th: Spring Arts Night @ Stoneham Theater
June 20th: Reading Friends and Family Day
