The CAU Community Players was created in 2011 to provide children, teens, and adults with special needs a creative and fun drama experience that promotes personal growth while breaking down stereotypes related to disabilities. Members of CAU have joined forces with people in their community to spotlight their talents on-stage in this first-ever performance in Union County. Seussical Jr. is sure to be a big hit! Hope you can join us!!
