The Plymouth Uptown Players (PUPS)
The Plymouth Uptown Players (PUPS) is an experimental theatre group that is made up of elementary and middle school aged children. Each season (Fall and Spring) children are invited to participate in open auditions. All children who audition will receive a part. The program culminates in a play performed at the Plymouth Community Arts Council. The performances are open to the public. Some of the casts are invited to perform for local elementary schools as well.
The program teaches children everything about producing and acting in a play including costumes, sets, and working together as a team with your other cast mates.

Our Instructor
Our director for the PUPS Program is Katelyn Sigworth.
Katelyn joins the PCAC with over six years of experience working with children's theatre groups. She was instrumental in the founding of the middle school drama workshop program, and Second Stage Players at Canton High School (now part of Park Players). Last spring, Katelyn directed a full length production at Canton High School entitled The Complete Works of Shakespeare, Abridged. Katelyn holds a bachelors degree in Biology and Theatre from the University of Michigan, and is a state-certified teacher. Students in this program should look forward to a high-energy, hands-on theatre experience. "My goal is to get kids really excited about being on stage. I want them to gain confidence and skills to continue doing theatre after camp is over. This is a really great chance for me to do something I love in my community."
