Future Fungus News - August 2025

Youth Theatre Camp Performance Friday August 1!

FungusAmongus in conjunction with Dassel-Cokato Community Education has been hosting the annual Youth Theatre camp this week, and tonight (Friday August 1) is their FREE public performance at 5:30PM at the Dassel Cokato Performing Arts Center.

The kids are having a blast and learning great things about theatre such as: memory skills, working on projecting their voices, learning what backstage crews and tech do during shows, and of course memorizing their lines for the big show!

Come out to the PAC and support these kids that have been working hard all week and learning the finer points of theatre!

So many ways to have fun with FungusAmongus!

You don't need to be on stage to have fun with FungusAmongus. For example, we're always looking for: 

  • AV Club members - learn to run sound or light for our shows!

  • Stage Managing / Crew Members. Do you want to help behind the scenes with the magic that goes on during the show? Help manage the stage and set during our productions!

  • Treat wranglers. Could you bake some yummy bars for us to serve at intermission? Could you serve those treats and coffee at our shows?

  • Stud sensors. Can you drive a nail, or paint a wall, or perhaps work some interior design magic? Our set-building crew is looking for you.

  • Board Member - Are you passionate about community theatre and want to "make it happen" behind the scenes? Then serving on our Board of Directors may be for you! We are particularly looking for community members with marketing, fundraising, and business acumen to join our ranks.

Get started by contacting us through our website or social media channels.
