Young performers from around the world are in Atlanta for performances and workshops meant to showcase how important the arts are in schools.
About 7,000 students are expected at the Junior Theater Festival this weekend.

Georgia students from schools like Mill Springs Academy in Alpharetta will be participating in this weekend’s festivities at the Cobb Galleria. Groups will perform in front of a set of musical theater experts. The young performers have 15 minutes, and they aren’t allowed to use any props or costumes.

Junior Theater Festival founder Tim McDonald said the simplicity has a purpose.
