About Main Stage Programming
Auditions are open to children in 5th to 8th grade who live in Elmhurst or attend Elmhurst schools.
Elmhurst Children's Theatre is an audition-based program. Not all children who audition will be cast.
ECT's sets, costumes, props and marketing are done completely by parent volunteers. As an all volunteer-run organization, our productions cannot happen without parent involvement. Therefore, one parent of each cast member is required to participate on a committee. For the safety of all involved, children who are not part of the cast (including siblings) may not attend rehearsals or accompany parents during volunteer activities. Volunteering with ECT is a fun way for parents to be a part of the production, and most parents find it very rewarding to see how hard the kids work and how passionate they are about the productions.
