The Warren Civic Theatre was started by Warren resident Greg Trzaskoma, in the summer of 1990 as a children’s theatre workshop in the gym at Ridgewood Recreation Center with about a dozen children. By 1994, the group grew to encompass about 60 members and they staged their first Broadway style musical in the auditorium of the Warren Community Center. Today the Warren Civic Theatre has over 2000 participants, past and present.
