Estevan kids from kindergarten to Grade 12 had a chance to check out their performing talents and skills on Monday when the Missoula Children's Theatre held auditions for its upcoming local performance of the Peter and Wendy.

The amazing opportunity to try out what it feels like to be an actor and to perform on stage was created through the Estevan Arts Council and Koncert for Kids, which every year bring the Missoula Theatre to Estevan.

About 50 kids attended the auditions. Even though local youths account for virtually all of the roles in the show, not all of them could become a part of the play.

The children who will comprise the cast were selected on Monday and moved into rehearsals right after the auditions. They were also expected to have a clear schedule for the rest of the week, as the rehearsals will continue each day to get ready for the show.

Peter and Wendy will be performed Saturday at the Souris Valley Theatre's Frehlick Hall. Performance times are at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.
