“Thoroughly Modern Millie” debuts July 13-16 at the Tryon Fine Arts Center

For almost two decades, the Tryon Little Theater has provided young people with the opportunity to shine onstage and backstage at the Tryon Fine Arts Center. The kids are at it again this summer with their production of “Thoroughly Modern Millie.” 

This musical is filled with flappers, farce, and fun, and these actors and designers are giving it all they got! Cast members and other local youth are being mentored through the process of designing and producing sets; summer youth show alums are coming home to support the next generation; and kids and their families are once again pulling together to share their hard work and talent with the community. 

The final product of this community effort will be presented to the public July 13-16 at the Tryon Fine Arts Center. •
