Theatre Club @ The REC began in 2015 as a way to give the children of our community the opportunity to explore their interest in the theatrical arts.

 
We are open to residents of North Tonawanda in grades 3 - 12. 

Participation is free. All we ask is that you pay us back with your passion and commitment to our production. 


We are always looking for stage design and stage crew help. High school students who volunteer can use these hours toward their service hour requirements. Information regarding volunteer hours will be set out through Schoology.

The 2024 NT Rec Theater Club performance will be:
school

Your favorite fairy-tale characters have their world turned upside down as they get a fresh taste of reality! When a portal is opened to another world, Cinderella’s stepsisters take the leap and find themselves in a very "real world" school.

While they seem to fit in perfectly in this world where mean girls are cool, crossing over into reality has serious consequences for the fantasy world they left behind. The Woodsman, who dreams of being more than just an incidental character without even a name, sets out to be the hero who brings them home.

The Woodsman seeks help from "real world" student Danica, a hard-core realist who never believed in fairy tales. She’s running for class president, but her speeches are full of gloom and doom. Meanwhile, gloom and doom are becoming a reality for our fairy-tale characters! Without the Woodsman, Little Red is attacked by the wolf and Sleeping Beauty keeps pricking her finger while chopping her own firewood! As harsh reality seeps into the fairy tales, the characters are forced to break free of their patterns and learn to take charge of their own destiny. Best of all, the classic princesses discover they can be their own heroes, and Danica realizes that sometimes you have to take a leap of faith!
