The performers of Disney's Beauty and the Beast (2006).
The St. Croix Valley Summer Theatre is a semi-professional
summer stock troupe based at the University of Wisconsin - River Falls, 25
miles east of Minneapolis-St. Paul in the scenic St. Croix River Valley region
of Western Wisconsin.
Since 1966, the SCVST has provided quality summer entertainment
to thousands of theater goers in the community and region. With fare ranging
from matchless Broadway musicals such as "My Fair Lady" and "Oliver!" to
delightful Neil Simon comedies and popular dramas, the company strives to
present the very best of live theatre in a five-week season in July and early
August.
The SCVST doesn't forget the younger audiences. A popular children's show
is produced in late June or early July in conjunction with the River Falls
Community Theatre.
SCVST actors, directors, designers and technicians are working professionals,
undergraduate and graduate students and community members chosen through
rigorous auditions and interviews. Many past company members have gone on
to rewarding careers in professional theatre, film, and television.
All
productions are held in the Blanche Davis Theatre, a modern, air-conditioned
300-seat proscenium theatre in the Kleinpell Fine Arts Building at UW-River
Falls. Extensive scene and costume shops, sophisticated computerized light
and sound systems, a digital audio studio, well-equipped rehearsal rooms
and a studio theatre complement the summer theatre's operations.
