The Experience
Kids On Stage is proud to continue the KOS Dreamer Program as part of our upcoming production of Winnie the Pooh KIDS! This hands-on, behind-the-scenes program offers teenagers the opportunity to develop leadership skills, gain real-world theater experience, and support our youngest cast members throughout the rehearsal and performance process.
Dreamers will work alongside our Dream Team to help bring the Hundred Acre Wood to life. From assisting in rehearsals to organizing costumes, leading warm-ups, or creating promotional content, Dreamers will play a key role in making the magic happen.
