This production program is designed for younger aspiring theater artists. Led by a team of professionals who value mentoring and teaching, this program is the most education-oriented production that KIDSTAGE offers and often takes place during spring semester of the school year. This program focuses on the performer and the development of their artistic process as they learn to create and collaborate with Directors, Music Directors, Choreographers, and Designers, as well as each other. Students who participate begin to learn the fundamentals of character development, studying choreography, staging, and vocal technique. They also experience a full production process from rehearsals, technical and dress rehearsals, to performances. 

Village Theatre believes that experiential learning in theater arts is a powerful tool for building essential life and career skills including critical thinking, concentration, collaboration, discipline, communication and creativity. We strive to ensure that all young people, regardless of financial circumstances, can participate in our programs.

Financial need should never be a reason to not participate in KIDSTAGE programs. For more information about our financial assistance including payment plans, please check out the link below.
