Watertown Children's Theatre 35th Anniversary Celebration!

Follow the yellow brick road to a celebration 35 years in the making!

The Watertown Children’s Theatre at the Mosesian Center for the Arts celebrates 35 years as a cultural and educational resource for the community by providing opportunities for all children to appreciate, participate, and grow in the performing arts.

We invite you to show your support at this very special 35th Anniversary event There’s No Place Like Home on Saturday, November 10th! Doors and reception at 5pm, program at 7pm.

Students, alums, family, staff... everyone's invited to a magical celebration that includes a light dinner of kid friendly foods, cash bar, and a charming musical stage show of both familiar and original pieces performed by WCT alumni and professional teaching artists. The pieces, each chosen to reflect the theme of the occasion, will be woven together through an artful blend of magic, humor and nostalgia. The show will also feature special appearances by the current casts of "Dream Big" and "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" and will end with a rousing audience participation number!
