Watch “Take Two” by the Charleston Youth Company

We’d love to announce the Charleston Youth Company’s production of Take Two, an original script written by CYC students.

This lighthearted musical includes tunes from the ‘80s through the present day and is a love story told in flashbacks.

The storyline follows a couple who drifted toward each other and stayed together through life. However, they kept desperately searching for their soul mates, until they finally realized their ideal match was there all this time.

The play runs on January 31 and February 1, 2014, at 7:30 p.m. at the College of Charleston’s Sottile Theatre at 44 George Street in Charleston. Tickets are available at the door one hour prior to the show, or you can call the studio at 843-766-4007 Monday–Thursday from 6:00-7:30 p.m. If you prefer, please leave a message any time of the day.
