Kidz Theater is a professional development company for young performers seeking a career in musical theater. We offer classes and productions for performers ages 8-18 and strive to teach professionalism, discipline and strong technique within a supportive, family environment. Our productions feature Broadway veterans as well as those with exceptional raw talent, and many of our young performers have gone on to Broadway or other professional productions within a few months of performing with Kidz Theater. Currently, our alumni are a part of all of the top college musical theater programs, many with hefty scholarships! More than just a typical youth theater, Kidz Theater strives to teach professionalism to each student or performer that comes through our doors.

William Shakespeare’s much-beloved JULIUS CAESAR is a classic tale of loyalty and power. Featuring some of the bard’s most famous speeches (“Friends, Romans, Countrymen” and “Cry ‘Havoc’ and let slip the dogs of war!”), this masterful play remains a testament to Shakespeare’s genius to this day. Combined with Hamlet Isn’t Dead’s unique brand of immediate theater and LIVE ROCK MUSIC, the result is sure to be electric. Creative Team: Director: Emily Jackson Assistant Director: Sophia Carlin Production Stage Manager: Kellie Taylor Assistant Stage Manager: Hannah Billbrough Set and Lighting Designer: Tyler M. Perry Composer and Musical Director: Jordan Brooks Management: Production Manager: David Andrew Laws Marketing Coordinator: James Rightmyer Jr  

Join us for an evening of inspiration & enchantment at the Second Annual Glitz & Grit Benefit Night: Let in the Light. 

Thank you for your interest in our Glitz & Grit Benefit to support The Center at West Park, a new performing arts center in the New York City Landmark West Park Presbyterian Church. Proceeds from the event support The Center at West Park’s Landmark Restoration Fund and Artist Residency Programs. Incorporated as a non-profit in December 2016 by a coalition of leaders from professional community arts development and the Upper West Side neighborhood, the Center’s purpose is to revitalize West Park as a home for theater, dance, music, and culture, and to steward the restoration of the building’s historic Romanesque Revival facade. The Center offers performances in its two unique theater spaces, affordable rehearsal and performance space to the public, and is home to several developing and established performing arts companies. Landmark Restoration Fund The Center is partnering with the New York Landmarks Conservancy and award-winning preservation architect Page Ayers Cowley to develop a plan for restoring West Park’s 1889 edifice. The first stage of the plan includes repairing the leaking roof to prevent further damage and completing a conditions assessment. Full restoration will include restoring the masonry and windows, adding accessible entrances, and removing the sidewalk shed on Amsterdam Ave and W 86th Street. Artist Residency Programs The Center is a creative home for some of the most diverse, engaging, and boundary-pushing artists in New York. Under our roof, resident companies Noche Flamenca, On Site Opera, and the Russian Arts Theater and Studio craft their critically-acclaimed performances. We cultivate the next generation of performers and arts administrators with our Theater Artist Residency Program, the Object Movement Puppetry Festival, the summertime Furnace Festival, and our Arts Leaders Fellowship Program. These residencies support the production of over twenty new plays with over one hundred public performances at the Center every year, empowering hundreds of individual arts and inspiring thousands of audience members annually.
