Theater for Young Audiences
Our Theater for Young Audiences program provides high-quality, professional theater experiences for schools and families. There is power in live theater, and we believe everyone should have the chance to experience it, no matter their age!
​
Since 2014, we have provided high-quality, standards-based curriculum from our stage, reaching 10,000 students in and around San Gabriel Valley. We hope to launch a touring program in hopes of reaching even more kids.

We are a proud partner organization of Pasadena Unified School District's Open Stage program. In 2022, we brought 800+ Pasadena United School District sixth-graders to Sierra Madre Playhouse to enjoy special performances of the wondrous Silent Sky.
​
We hope to launch our previously postponed TYA production of In the Garden of the Selfish Giant in the near future.
Reviews

I wanted to let you know how much we loved the play! The Sierra Madre Playhouse is such a cozy, comfortable, and historic venue, we would love to come back again.

My colleague and I adored our time at the playhouse today! It is by far the best theater field trip we have had the opportunity to enjoy. We look forward to a yearly visit.
