NEWS RELEASE
KEMPENFELT COMMUNITY PLAYERS
*************************
Kempenfelt Community Players (KCP) is adapting to the new normal and is currently streaming their virtual youth production of The Tales of Andergrimm. Audiences can stream the performance until Oct. 22. Tickets can be purchased online here.

A talented youth cast from across Simcoe County brings to life fairytale characters whose stories intertwine in the town of Andergrimm. This quick-paced tale emphasizes the learning of courage, caring, empathy, inclusiveness, integrity, honesty, respect, optimism, co-operation and responsibility. With a variety of songs, both upbeat and reflective, this cast dances their way through challenges and in the end the individuals “Choose to Be Good!”

Originally commissioned in 2005 by Kempenfelt Community Players, the production was very popular with school audiences in Simcoe County for two seasons. Due to the limitations currently in place for live performances, KCP has pivoted to virtual performance in order to reach a wider audience and still provide opportunities for our youth theatre in Simcoe County. This summer the show was rehearsed and filmed outdoors and is now ready for virtual audiences.

Further information about the production can be found on the KCP website. A trailer for the performance can be viewed here.

KCP is a community theatre group that has been performing in Barrie and the surrounding area for over 40 years. We are made up of enthusiastic members who have a love of live musical theatre. New members are always welcome, both on stage and behind the scenes.
