Description

The Newington Children’s Theatre Company (NCTC), CT’s longest operating children’s theatre, is preparing to hold our second annual Starlight Gala at the Indian Hill Country Club on April 4, 2020. We invite you to join in our celebration by supporting the children through donating tickets for our raffle. This one-night only event will be a celebration of NCTC’s vibrant history, highlighting the diverse talents of many area youth, while raising the necessary funds to set the stage for our future. Every dollar raised from this event directly benefits children’s programming.

Since inception in 1963, NCTC continually strives to provide quality, fun, hands-on educational opportunities for children and young adults and to help open the doors of cultural enrichment to all participants. Throughout the season we offer five (5) fully-produced productions, eight (8) summer programs resulting in four (4) fully-produced productions and a plethora of classes, workshops and outreach programs, serving over 750 children annual ly.  

At NCTC, we create a safe, engaging environment for kids to explore their imaginations, while learning how to take positive risks and conquer fears. Not only building confidence and self-esteem, kids learn how to collaboratively work to reach a common goal. NCTC teaches kids life skills that are beneficial far beyond the stage.

Supporting NCTC links your business with the pulse of our community’s youth (and their families), while showing that your business values NCTC as a cultural treasure in our community. While we are based in Newington, our programming draws participants and audiences from all parts of Connecticut.

Being a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit organization, your donations are tax-deductible (48-1290257). Your support will help us keep the “curtain raised” while helping children achieve their fullest potential.
