About Children On Stage

Children On Stage (COS) is an arm of the Garland Civic Theatre, located at 108 N. 6th St., Garland, Texas.

The primary purposes of COS are to:

  • Conduct open auditions.
    COS will use children of ages 8-18 years for both backstage and onstage roles in quality theatrical productions for public performances.

  • Provide a wide range of theatrical experience for children onstage, backstage and in the audience.
    Children will be given the opporitunity to play multi-age roles.

The purpose of the Children On Stage Steering Committee is to support the COS program by providing the structure and facility to:

  • Cast children (unmarried) between 8 years and 18 years of age, or full-time students in high school, in COS productions. Graduating seniors may participate through August of their graduating year.

  • Aid with the studio fee on individual expression of need.

  • Act as an advocate for the interest, welfare and safety of children participating in the COS program by attending production meetings and rehearsals as necessary.

What are kids and parents saying after being involved in a COS production?

"I thought it was an especially friendly and accepting environment for kids new to theatre. My child loved it and looked forward to practice every day. It was a great thing for her to be involved in and it was her first event."

"I was worried about leaving my daughter who is visually impaired [at rehearsals] but after the first day I knew she was safe with great people who made sure she was OK. Could NOT ask for a better staff."

"Enjoyed working with everyone. Very impressed with how staff works with kids."

"Most pleasant. Everyone (was) helpful and calm and encouraging to the actors and crew as well as the parents."
