Our Youth Theater Program is designed to peak the interest of area youth and cultivate their knowledge of the theatre. All roles are cast solely on talent, which mean auditions are necessary to be part of the show. Auditions are by appointment only and actors are given a specific monologue to rehearse when they sign up to audition. There is no fee for auditioning or participating, however parents and siblings are encouraged to help out with costumes and scenery!

Theater is comprised of many elements aside from acting. Local youth also serve as the backstage and technical crew for each show. Sound and Lighting Technicians as well as backstage crew and stage managers are always needed and are viewed to be just as important as the talent. If you’re interested in helping behind the scenes contact Tabitha Cuomo directly by calling 495-8989 or emailing tabithac@artinusa.com.
