Young Companies
The Citadel Theatre Young Companies are advanced training and mentorship programs for aspiring theatre artists between the ages of 16-21. They are comprised of two cohorts –the Performing Company (for actors) and the Production Company (for technicians, designers and stage managers). These theatre artists are dedicated to furthering their craft and are serious about pursuing post-secondary education and a career in theatre.
In addition to core training taught by an outstanding team of local theatre professionals, the Young Company culminates in a Spring production in the Rice Theatre, featuring the Young Performing Company onstage and technical and design support from the Young Production Company.
Many of our alumni are now in prestigious acting and musical theatre training programs across North America.
