NightLight Productions: NightLight productions are selected for Ao1's youngest group of performers. This provides an introduction to the theater experience from auditions to performing on stage in front of a full audience. They perform for a 25-minute showcasing acting, singing, and dancing prior to other Ao1 Productions. They are costumed and made up by the make-up committee to put the final touches on creating the magic! (Auditions for this group are during the first 2 weeks of the session; no special sign-up is required.). This group is open to ages 5-8.
