Our Membership
Stage 2 is a comprehensive youth theatre program designed to educate, inspire, and empower young performers through hands-on theatrical experience. Our program goes beyond memorizing lines; students learn the full process of creating live theatre, from auditions and rehearsals to final performances. Participants work closely with experienced directors, designers, and mentors who guide them in developing performance skills, confidence, and professionalism.
Stage 2 provides a creative home where students can explore storytelling, build self-expression, and grow both on and off the stage. Whether a participant is new to theatre or has years of experience, our program meets students where they are and helps them grow.
Who Can Join
Stage 2 membership is open to rising 7th graders through 20-year-olds who are interested in theatre and performing arts. We welcome students from all backgrounds and experience levels, no prior theatre training is required. All that’s needed is a willingness to learn, collaborate, and commit to the rehearsal process.
Our age range allows younger students to learn from older peers while giving advanced performers opportunities to lead, mentor, and refine their skills in a real-world theatre environment.
A Community That Feels Like Home
Stage 2 prides itself on being a welcoming, inclusive space where every participant is valued. Our program encourages respect, collaboration, and mutual support, creating an environment where students feel safe to take creative risks and grow as individuals.
Students don’t just join a program, they join a family of artists, mentors, and peers who share a love for theatre.
