weekend. Audiences are invited to enjoy Musicville, LCT’s youth
workshop musical. Directed by veteran thespian and theater director

this musical adventure created by Beat by Beat Press. Wilmert is

Rhythm as they attempt to save their town from the Sorcerer of
Silence. On their quest to the Castle of Composition, they pass

Terrain of Tango meeting musical friends and foes along the way.
Their journey teaches them about new kinds of music, overcoming
obstacles, and the importance of working together!”
