The Idaho Falls Youth Arts Centre is pleased to announce our next fall musical, Oliver!
The award-winning musical adaptation of the classic Dickens novel springs to life with some of the most memorable characters and songs ever to grace the stage. The streets of Victorian England come to life as Oliver, a malnourished orphan in a workhouse, becomes the neglected apprentice of an undertaker. Oliver escapes to London and finds acceptance amongst a group of petty thieves and pickpockets led by the elderly Fagin. When Oliver is captured for a theft that he did not commit, the benevolent victim, Mr. Brownlow takes him in. Fearing the safety of his hideout, Fagin employs the sinister Bill Sikes and the sympathetic Nancy to kidnap him back, threatening Oliver’s chances of discovering the true love of a family.
Performances will be at the Idaho Falls Civic Center for the Performing Arts on November 12, 13, 15, and 16, 2021, each evening at 7:30 p.m., with a special 2:00 p.m. matinee performance on Saturday, November 13th.
Auditions are scheduled for August 19, 20, and 21 2021. Please check back for more details and information to be posted here as it is finalized.

The Idaho Falls Youth Arts Centre (IFYAC) is excited to kickoff the holiday season with Elf the Musical, November 13, 14, 16, 17, and 18, 2020.
IFYAC’s production of Elf the Musical is a must-see holiday attraction. Based on the cherished 2003 New Line Cinema hit, this modern-day holiday classic is sure to make everyone embrace their inner elf. Full of jolly songs and jubilant dance numbers, Elf will captivate audiences, usher in the holiday spirit, and help us all to remember the true meaning of Christmas.
Buddy, a young orphan, mistakenly crawls into Santa's bag of gifts and is transported to the North Pole. The would-be elf is raised, unaware that he is actually a human until his enormous size and poor toy-making abilities cause him to face the truth. With Santa's permission, Buddy embarks on a journey to New York City to find his birth father and discover his true identity. Faced with the harsh realities that his father is on the naughty list and his half-brother doesn't even believe in Santa, Buddy is determined to win over his new family and help New York remember the true meaning of Christmas.
For over 20 years, the Idaho Falls Arts Centre has been showcasing our area talent through quality productions in our community. Each year IFYAC brings professional live theater experiences to the youth of our community while giving them an opportunity to mentor with experienced actors and staff.
