Children's Theatre Cancels Shows, Offers Online Camps

From May 06, 2020 12:59 pm until June 06, 2020 2:59 pm

CHILDRENS’ THEATRE CANCELS PERFORMANCES, OFFERS ONLINE FILM AND THEATRE CAMPS

It is with deep regret the we announce that the Rehoboth Summer Children’s Theatre has had to cancel all public performances for the 2020 season. Theatre and film camps will be conducted online instead. This is based on a concern for the health and safety of our patrons and staff. Also affecting the decision is the uncertainty regarding the availability of the performance and camp venues. In addition to the public performances staged at Epworth Methodist Church, RSCT usually maintains an extensive outreach tour bringing the theatre into locations throughout Kent and Sussex Counties. However, most of these venues are closed or cancelling in-house programs.

While the shows won’t be “live and on stage”, RSCT will be very active throughout the summer. Our outstanding staff of instructors has created dynamic, interactive virtual camps in theatre and film for ages 5-14. The company will also be working with area libraries, providing steaming content to replace the live performances that were originally scheduled. For the public at large, videos of previous performances will rotate on the RSCT website throughout the summer.

“We have weathered many storms in the 38 previous seasons”, says company co-founder, Steve Seyfried. “We will get through this one too, and return even stronger for season # 40!” Information on the film and theatre camps, as well as special programming can be found at www.rehobothchildrenstheater.org.
