About Us
 
 
 
Our Mission:
Stages Theatre Company is committed to the enrichment and education of children and youth in a professional theatre environment that stimulates artistic excellence and personal growth.

We are devoted not only to producing theatre and educating youth about performing arts but also to making theatre come alive by demonstrating how the magic of theatre is actually accomplished. We believe that theatre has the potential to inspire, educate and entertain, while being an effective vehicle for personal growth. Our programs strengthen and enrich communities.


On our stage, the curtains open, the lights go up and the mystique of theatre begins to pull you and your imagination into the excitement of the play.

 

Thousands upon thousands of young people receive their first exposure to theatre right here, and our world is the best place for that to happen. We take seriously our commitment to serving families on stage and in the classroom. We want to foster a lifelong love of theatre, and BE magical, amazing and inspirational in all we do.”
