Together, we can create theatre that inspires!
Arlington Children’s Theatre is dedicated to creating quality theatrical events, workshops, and experiences that educate, inspire, and enrich the lives of children ages 7-18, their families, and the community. We produce a variety of plays and musicals each season and offer exciting workshops and vacation day programs that center on the educational process and the theatrical and interpersonal development of each individual participant.

ACT NEEDS YOUR HELP
Like many small businesses, Arlington Children’s Theatre is suffering from the devastating economic impact of the COVID pandemic. If you, or your children, have benefitted from ACTs quality programming and dynamic productions, if you have proudly watched your excited children perform on stage, if you have been an enthusiastic audience member supporting live children’s theater, we are asking for your donation.
ACT’s Mission Statement:
ACT embraces by opening its doors to all who wish to participate regardless of background, experience, or acting, dancing or singing ability.
ACT enriches by providing a safe, welcoming space where children can be exposed to new experiences, different points of view, and challenged beyond their current selves.
ACT educates formally through its workshops, programs and high-quality productions led by staff with years of experience and dedication to theatre. ACT also educates informally by helping give children the freedom to express themselves, and develop the communication, teamwork, and conflict resolution skills necessary to see a complex production with many personalities come to life.
ACT entertains by creating excellent, professional-looking and -sounding productions that everyone can enjoy and be proud of: the ACTors, their parents, the artistic staff, and the local community.
ACT encourages by supporting everyone in the ACT community and teaching them to be resilient, humble, and to persevere.
