The Children's Theatre is Utah's premiere theatre for young audiences. The mission of our organization is "Inspiring children to cultivate creativity through the theatrical arts." Founded by the Parker family in 1986, The Children's Theatre enters it's 26th season of productions in downtown Salt Lake City.
Mainstage
The Mainstage are public performances which are held and a 99 seat black box theatre with a thrust stage. This intimate venue allows young audience members to sit close to the stage. Five productions are offered to the public this year on selected Friday evenings and two matinees on Saturdays. For many children it will be the first time they will sit as an audience member during a live play. The plays are geared towards younger audiences with stories based on classical, modern and original plays. Although it is for children, the plays do not alienate an adult.
