RTP Kids
Resolute Theatre Project seeks to cultivate artists of all ages, which is why from its inception, children's programming has been an integral aspect of who they are.
RTP Kids is committed to creating workshops, classes, and performance opportunities that are both professional and accessible. With an emphasis on creativity, students will find themselves in an environment that fosters their growth as artists and encourages them to imagine better solutions for brighter tomorrows.
MADAGASCAR JR.
Join Alex the Lion, Marty the Zebra, Melman the Giraffe, Gloria the hip hip Hippo and, of course, those hilarious, plotting penguins as they bound onto your stage in the musical adventure of a lifetime. Based on the smash DreamWorks animated motion picture, Madagascar – A Musical Adventure JR. follows all of your favorite crack-a-lackin’ friends as they escape from their home in New York’s Central Park Zoo and find themselves on an unexpected journey to the madcap world of King Julien’s Madagascar.
Alex the lion is the king of the urban jungle, the main attraction at New York's Central Park Zoo. He and his best friends — Marty the zebra, Melman the giraffe and Gloria the hippo — have spent their whole lives in blissful captivity before an admiring public and with regular meals provided for them. Not content to leave well enough alone, Marty lets his curiosity get the better of him and makes his escape — with the help of some prodigious penguins — to explore the world.
Filled with outlandish characters, adventure galore and an upbeat score, Madagascar JR. will leave audiences with no choice but to “Move It, Move It!”
Past RTP Kids Shows
One of the best ways to learn is to simply do. At RTP Kids, we are committed to providing our students with the opportunity to perform.
KidWorks
Theatre Created by Kids
We bring kids together to experiment with performance in an extended, supervised time of creative play. The children act, sing, and dance, but also write, direct, and choreograph.
Each summer, a handful of kid directors make immense preparations for their KidWorks productions. These directors select their shows, promote auditions, and cast players. They prepare scripts, music, and choreography to equip their casts for the independent work required prior to mandatory rehearsal week. When everyone comes together, shows are staged and rehearsed during one week of intensive workshops and performed for audiences. And perhaps the most unique part of the entire process is that adult mentors walk alongside these student artists from start to finish.
