KAUKAUNA — Kaukauna High School is one of 31 area high school to participate in this year’s Center Stage High School Musical Theater Program, the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center announced Monday.
The KHS spring musical is planned for March 9-11, 2023.
The Center Stage High School Musical Theater Program was launched in 2016 as an education initiative that celebrates and supports the achievements of high school musical theater while developing confidence, creativity and collaboration among high school students throughout Northeast Wisconsin. Educational opportunities are provided all season long for students and educators to learn and grow together in their craft.
This year, the students will participate in workshops that include a marketing workshop with Jesus Christ Superstar‘s marketing team, a monologue workshop with actress, Ginger Grace and a dance workshop with local dance professionals. Select students may become Student Ambassadors to represent the program or join the auditioned ensemble, Encore Singers, to perform for Center hosted and community events. The program will culminate in a red carpet, Tony Awards® style showcase at the Center on May 6, 2023 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets for the Center Stage High School Musical Theater Showcase will go on sale Wednesday, September 28 at 10:00 a.m.
Tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for students; they can be purchased at the Fox Cities P.A.C. ticket office in person, by phone at (920) 730-3760, Ticketmaster online, or by phone at (800) 982-2787.

“We are looking forward to celebrating high school musical theater students and their talents in this upcoming season,” said Chief Programming Officer, Amy Gosz. “It’s a wonderful opportunity for high school students from the surrounding areas to learn from trained, seasoned professionals in the performing arts industry, perform alongside their peers and recognize each other’s achievements. This season, more than ever, we are reminded of the importance and value of arts opportunities in our communities to encourage the dreams of our next generation.”
