Overview
San Jose Children’s Musical Theater is one of the nation’s largest theatrical performing and training organizations for youth. The organization mounts ten core productions annually with performers aged four to twenty, reaching more than 30,000 audience members. Every child who auditions is cast, resulting in 1,000 young performers taking the stage. The organization also reaches more than 7,000 schoolchildren each year with its Student Matinee Program, workshops and master classes, and intensive summer sessions. With new and stabilizing leadership in place, and plans to launch a teacher engagement program and a parent docent initiative, renewed support would assist the organization in providing young people with outstanding arts experiences.
