CAST is a theater organization helping to preserve
the arts in the greater Manchester area and beyond. CAST started as a small childrens' theater group run out of the
home of its Co-Founder, Donna Mercier. In the beginning, CAST operated primarily during the summer, mounting
musical productions out of Manchester High School's Bailey Auditorium. However, since inception, CAST has grown
ten fold.
CAST, Inc. now operates out of its own facility
on Summit Street in Manchester, CT. CAST has grown from a childrens' theater group doing summer musicals to a
full scale theatre group offering year-round productions and classes for children. There is also a splinter
group known as CAST After Dark offering theater productions for teens and adults. CAST is a nonprofit organization
run by volunteers and all funds raised are used to maintain our program.
