Youth Programs Ages 7-17

Multi-program youth wing with auditions, classes, and camps. Programs include:
- Chrysalis Players youth ensemble
- Pillow Plays (small-format kid productions)
- Jeff Walker Youth One Act Festival
- Summer Stock Camp (June-July)
- Recent youth productions: Frozen Jr., The Addams Family

What's Included

• Youth ensemble (Chrysalis) with ongoing membership
• Multiple performance opportunities per year (Pillow Plays, One Act Fest)
• Summer Stock immersive camp with full musical production
• Drama League venue with full stage, sound, and lights

Experience

Best for kids who want to belong to a youth ensemble rather than rotate through classes. Chrysalis membership and Summer Stock are the two anchors that make kids return season after season.
