Description
DreamWrights Youth & Family Theatre was founded in 1997 by a group of families who believed that participation in a quality theatre arts program would have a profound and valuable impact on their children. They shared a vision of a youth theatre that was also a vehicle for families to work together in all aspects of a production. And they wanted to make sure that the experience of live theatre was affordable and available to everyone.
As they worked together on theatre performances, they noticed that amazing things were happening. Their children were becoming more confident, more responsible, more tolerant, more curious and more resourceful.
Not only were the children learning about every aspect of live theatre, and how all the parts fit together to make a whole...they were also sharing, making new friends and laughing! That common vision never changed, although DreamWrights certainly has! With every audition, more and more families are discovering DreamWrights. For every new production, there may be as many as 35 young people enjoying their very first theatrical experience. And not just young people! Many parents join in and have been able to share the experience with their children.
We invite you and your family to join in the magic that is DreamWrights!
