Our young performers at the Plaza are nicknamed the Litefooters because our adults are called the Footeliters in honor of Pulitzer and Academy Award-winning playwright, Horton Foote, who was born in Wharton.
Every summer, we teach basic stagecraft and theatre discipline to youngsters aged 6 through 16 at the Litefooter Summer Youth Workshop.
The workshop culminates in a major production on the Plaza’s main stage during the last weekend in June.
