FIRST ACT'S STATEMENT ON SOCIAL JUSTICE
First Act Children’s Theatre believes in and strongly supports social justice in our community and in our nation. Theatre arts play a vital part in shaping the stories we share and it is our role to include children in the narrative in order to promote healthy change and a better future. We have striven in our material and process to be inclusive of race, gender identity, sexual orientation, disabilities, and socioeconomic status, and recommit to honoring this goal in our future efforts. We grieve the unrest in our nation and give our support to the protestors who are exercising their constitutional right to freedom of speech. Black lives matter, and we find, time and again, that children have the strongest voices of anyone, and they deserve to be heard.

Our Programs:
First Act Children's Theatre, LLC offers programs year-round, with focus on the process of learning the art of theatre rather than just the final product. We provide instruction on acting, choreography, and vocals as well as the technical aspects of theatre by having students assist with development and creation of sets and props.
Our Mission:
First Act Children's Theatre, LLC is dedicated to encouraging the discovery and development of creativity, imagination, self-esteem, and leadership through the process of theatre.
Our History:
At First Act Children's Theatre, LLC we have been offering outstanding children's theatre to youth, ages 4 to 18, in the Madison area since 1999. Our camps and classes emphasize the process of theatre, with performance as the outcome-- not the goal! Our focus is on the positive development of imagination and self-esteem for each student.
