Since 2013, Great River Arts (GRA) has coordinated 12 theatre performances - welcoming new and seasoned actors and directors to our stage. Community theatre provides GRA with a visible platform to not only showcase local talent, but to connect in the community as friends, neighbors and family. GRA presents theater through its youth summer camps in addition to its Dinner Theater programming, allowing kids to learn auditioning skills, stage presence, and choreography. We pride ourselves in being a hub for community theater and bringing together local talent, directors, and volunteers together through the performing arts.

Stay connected to our programs by checking back to this page or by signing up (at the bottom of our Home Page) for our email newsletter  - with monthly postings about upcoming engagement opportunities.
