‘I want this to be affordable for students’: Director of newly established Soolebrity Youth Theatre excited to promote city’s young talent with a lineup of funny shows next week
When Michael Duclos and his family moved back to Sault Ste. Marie two years ago, the veteran stage performer wanted to make sure local kids had affordable access to the performing arts.
Fast-forward four months, the newly established theatre troupe has maxed out its current spaces, and members are now getting ready to put on the group's first-ever show entitled “Hilarity Ensues” at the Sault Community Theatre Centre from June 12-14.“It’s a really unique group of kids, and they’re all rock stars,” Duclos said. “It’s probably a little crazily ambitious we’re doing three one-act plays and skits for our first show, but they’re just so talented and they work really hard.
But perhaps most importantly, the director hopes Soolebrity Youth Theatre could one day be a stepping stone that helps launch his students into careers and professional roles in the arts industry. Then in the fall, the group will reassemble for 15 weeks of improvisation, theatre development, and performance for one to two nights each week. Tuition cost is $150.
