DOTHAN, Ala. - Spark Theater Company is a youth theater group where tweens and teens have the opportunity to take center stage. However, they are learning so much more than scripts and songs. The organization is shining the spotlight on love, passion, and arts.
Just nine years later Spark Theater Company has accomplished 40 shows and there are many more on the horizon. Kids 12 years old to seniors in high school can join the nonprofit. Rush said Spark presents four to six shows every year. “The way that you can make yourself vulnerable by playing someone who you aren’t, it’s a way to express your emotions that you couldn’t as your own self,” Thornton said.“The environment that the students and the staff create here is just absolutely wonderful and you honestly couldn’t get it anywhere else,” Thornton said.
He said countless hours go into building the production from the ground up and it’s all worth it, every curtain call.
