BancFirst brings Oklahoma Children’s Theatre to Guthrie

Elementary students in Guthrie will enjoy a free performance from the BancFirst Tour of the Oklahoma Children’s Theatre. 

Each year BancFirst joins Oklahoma Children’s Theatre to sponsor performances in communities around the state. Oklahoma Children’s Theatre scales down one of their stage performances, including sets, costuming, and cast to take on the road to share a high quality, live theatre experience with elementary school students in select BancFirst communities.

Oklahoma Children’s Theatre will present Rumpelstiltskin to the students on February 12 at Guthrie Junior High School’s auditorium. Rumpelstiltskin was chosen for the touring production because it is entertaining and exposes children to the arts. Cast members interact with the audience during the performance to engage students and personalize their experience. 

“We’re thrilled Oklahoma Children’s Theatre will make a stop in Guthrie this year,” said LaVerne Dowding, president of BancFirst Guthrie. “Their plays are always entertaining and give the children and staff the opportunity to enjoy live theater.”

The BancFirst tour will also make appearances in seven other Oklahoma communities this spring with a total of 15 performances. BancFirst has sponsored the program for over 20 years.
