Children’s Educational Theatre provides an immersive, enriching theatre experience for children of all ages, experiences and backgrounds in the Mid-Valley area. It is an inclusive and dynamic five-week program where anyone can step outside a traditional school construct and interact with positivity and collaboration.
Students involved in CET have the exciting opportunity to participate in three classes everyday, which may include acting, music, dance, technical theatre, stage combat, improvisation, and more. 2025 course descriptions can be found here if you’d like an idea of what we offer.
Students enrolled in our performance program are cast in one of our productions – everyone gets a role!
Students enrolled in our technical arts program work behind the scenes to make the productions happen. This includes working on lighting, stage management, prop making, and more. CET’s success is based on everyone’s commitment to the program.
Students are also featured in our Fine Arts Night Showcase on the final night.
Students are enrolled in three classes based on their preferences. Classes are attended everyday.
Students are either cast in or assigned to (depending on whether they are in the performance or tech track) one of our productions during the first week of CET. They receive a rehearsal schedule for the last two weeks of the program, specific to that show.
Each show has different dates, times, and locations where it is performed. Some of these include the Salem Public Library, the Gerry Frank Amphitheater, and local schools. Performance schedules are unique to each show, but all performances happen in the last week and a half of the program.
Incoming 4th through 12th graders can participate in CET
These are our youngest participants. Everyone is cast in at least one role to perform in the Midsummer Festival.
Middle School participants who choose the performance track audition for a role in either the Library Show, the Travel Show, the Musical, or the Park Play.
Middle School participants who choose the tech track are assigned a tech role for either the Library Show, the Travel Show, the Musical, or the Park Play.
Our oldest performance students run their Level 7 show including costumes, sets, and performing. The tech students are stage managers for the other shows.
