DISNEY’S “101 DALMATIANS, KIDS”

May 9 - 18, 2025 | Mainstage Theatre | Youth Theatre Production

Music and Lyrics by Mal Leven, Randy Rogel, Richard Gibbs, Brian Smith, Martin Lee Fuller, and Dan Root, Based on the novel by Dodie Smith

Pet owners, Roger and Anita, live happily in London with their Dalmatians, Pongo and Perdita, loyal dogs devoted to raising their puppies. Everything is quiet until Anita’s former classmate, the monstrous Cruella De Vil, plots to steal the puppies for her new fur coat. The Dalmatians rally all the dogs of London for a daring rescue of the puppies from Cruella and her bumbling henchmen.

Appropriate for all ages


You’ll Fit Right in Here!

Welcome to YOUR theatre, the Chattanooga Theatre Centre. From the volunteer taking tickets at the Box Office to the proud parent watching a shy child blossom on stage, this is right where you belong.

There are many ways to support our mission. Each of us has a role to play, whether you want to shine on stage, help behind the scenes, contribute financially, or simply sit back and enjoy what we create.

“Summer Academy”

Each year, Chattanooga Theatre Centre’s Summer Academy teaches young people (rising first through twelfth grade) about the art of acting, creating a character, technical theatre, dance, and more!

Spend your summer with us in one of our one, two, or three week sessions starting June 3rd and running till August 2nd, 2024.

  • "The Theatre Centre has had a profound positive impact on my family. These past 17 years have seen my daughter, Annie, grow up in the Youth Theatre, my wife, Jackie, painting a set piece or two, and allowed me some time on the stage as well. We would not be the family we are without the CTC."

    Mitch Collins

  • "I am overjoyed with my first theatre experience and so happy it was with the CTC. I became a sponge and realized how much work everyone puts into every production, I’ve learned that theatre is a team sport just like basketball or football. There are no small parts, there is no one who isn’t needed. The cast and crew really taught me why I should appreciate live theatre, and the effort that every person in the show, both on stage and off stage, puts into it. Thanks CTC for sharing your talents and knowledge. I am forever grateful!"

    Kimberly Reynolds

  • "The Theatre Centre is more than a building and a stage and actors and crew. It’s more than a venue. It’s a home and a haven and a family. It’s the frame that holds the masterpieces of Chattanooga’s community: its most talented, creative, and passionate members."

    Greer Caldwell

  • "Thinking of CTC volunteers as amateurs might sound negative, but “amateur” comes from the word for love. The CTC is a community of amateurs who love creating art together. Audiences are surprised that we’re volunteers because of the professional quality of our work. Since 2001, I have volunteered on stage, back stage, behind a piano or in the lobby. The CTC is like Oz: there’s no place like the artistic home I’ve found there."

    John Echols

  • "In THE WIZ, Dorothy sings, 'When I think of home, I think of a place where there’s love overflowing,' and that has been my experience -- I’ve been very much at home here. I always have that little magical something inside me when I come to this building. Thank you, Theatre Centre, for giving me this opportunity to give back to my community through the arts."
