Local students take part in week-long theater production

 

Local children had the opportunity to perform on stage Saturday evening at Woodfin Patterson Auditorium, thanks to the Brewton Council for the Arts bringing the Missoula Children’s Theatre to Brewton.

Children auditioned Monday after school and spent hours after school last week preparing for the performance of “The Pied Piper.”
