PAGE ROBBINS PLAYERS


Come join us for this exciting new opportunity made possible with help from a grant from the Collierville Community Fund.

We are forming The PAGE ROBBINS PLAYERS, a group of 10-12 students ages 10-18. Students will rehearse 2 days a week for 8-10 weeks and then perform at Page Robbins Adult Day Care at 3:00pm-4:00pm the afternoon of March 29th, June 28th and September 27th.

There will be auditions each quarter and a new group of players for each performance. This allow more students to participate throughout the program and it will not require a year long commitment from any one student. Each performance will have a different theme and will include music and poetry. There will be no cost to students who participate.

MATCH GRANT: HUGE SUCCESS

MATCH GRANT 2011
Our MATCH GRANT 2011 was an OVERWHELMING SUCCESS---Thank you to all who participated.  With your help we were able to raise over $12,000.  With our match it became just over $22,000.  We can set the bar higher in 2012 and continue to make New Day Children's Theatre a remarkable place.   With your help, children can be introduced to a place where they can learn and grow, dive in to their creative abilities and bringing out the inner actor, painter, stage manager in those who want to participate. We cannot continue our record of success without the help from friends and supporters of the arts. There is no better investment than in the children of our community. New Day would not be a success without the support of our community and friends.  We appreciate everyone who believes in us and sees the value in a theatre program dedicated to our children.  Remember, there is no amount that is too little and all donations are tax deductible! We have established donor levels for individuals and corporations.  Click here to read about them and make a donation: Donate
