History


The Youth Theatre Company inspires young people to create imaginative and exciting theatrical performances and create a life-long love of the arts.  Furthermore, with the creation of this all encompassing group, we will create a community of youth and parents dedicated to theatre arts education. 


Junior Theatre has been a part of Civic Arts Education for more than twenty-five years.  In its history we have won awards at the Broadway Junior Festival in Atlanta, Georgia twice.  Our first honors was an ensemble choreography award in 2005.  In 2007, we were honored with an Outstanding Performance Award. 


In 2006, we added Teen Theatre for those student who have graduated out of Jr. Theatre but still wanted to expand the performance skills.  Later that year, the Youth Theatre Company was created to establish a stepping stone program for children who want to grow as performers.


 

From being in Jr Theater, I've learned better teamwork and

responsibility, because it's important to know that theater isn't all about one person.
