Kids Take the Stage – Register Now for Bell Tower Theater Classes

The stage is the classroom, and Kindergarten to 6th-grade kids can learn and play at the Bell Tower Theater this fall. 

Miki Robinson stopped by the Townsquare Studios and the Good Morning Rodeo on 103.3 WJOD to share Dubuque's Bell Tower Fall youth programs.

The Kids Take the Stage Program is a fun way to get the young ones introduced and involved in the theater. However, it's also an innovative way to get them thinking creatively, collaborating with other kids, and working on their communication skills.
