MISSION STATEMENT
2nd Gen Theatre Academy classes emphasize the importance of process over product. Theatre is based in imaginative play – creating worlds and characters that will tell a story. Play is where the magic happens!
Led by local theatre professionals, our classes engage students through activities and games that not only cultivate their creativity and build confidence, but also teach them foundational skills and the importance of collaboration.

“She was genuinely so sad when it was over, which I think says everything about the environment you created. She absolutely loved being part of this show, the rehearsals, the performances, the friendships, and getting to work with all of you. Watching her come home excited every day and seeing how happy she was on that stage meant so much to me as her mom.!”
