This summer, the Lorain County Children's Pioneer Theater (LCCPT) program is celebrating an incredible milestone—50 years! And what better way to celebrate than by heading to a pineapple under the sea with SpongeBob the Musical?
Joining us today are two guests with deep connections to the program: Maddie Riley, a preschool teacher with Elyria's Early Childhood Village and the creative leader of the production, and community member and LCCPT board member, Gina Massey, whose theater journey began in the program's very first show 50 years ago, when she played the Lion in The Wizard of Oz. We'll talk about the program's history, why it continues to thrive and how so many students from our district and surrounding districts have learned theater skills, teamwork and creativity through this unique summer educational theater experience. Welcome to Petey Podcast, Maddie and Gina!
It's a great day to be a Pioneer! Thanks for listening. Find Elyria Schools on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube!
