ABOUT US
The Players Theatre Company helps kids find their voice and
take the stage!
Our co-curricular programs are more than just an ‘activity’ for students with an interest in performing. We offer high-level instruction and strive to include the students in every aspect of the theatrical process.
Whether attending a one-day improv or musical theatre workshop or an ongoing Theatre Performance program, participants are encouraged to take creative risks in order to develop an expanded performance vocabulary and heightened skills.
In addition to nurturing each child’s unique talents, our program fosters a love for the creative process, greater confidence in their ability to express ideas and emotions and the appreciation of team work in building a strong ensemble. These are all wonderful life skills for future growth in the arts and beyond!
WHO WE ARE
So much of our strength comes from the quality of our creative team!
Our company is made up of mature theatre professionals with University and College degrees in Acting, Music, Dance and Musical Theatre and a wealth of experience teaching and mentoring young performers. Most of us began studying in the arts as children ourselves and have a passion for sharing the positive, confidence building benefits of the theatrical process with the next generation. We know this maturity and wisdom is essential when interacting with young students because it is important that their early exposure to the performing arts is empowering, inspiring and overwhelmingly positive!
