Philosophy
The Princess Theatre is committed to providing professional-level training to students of all ages. We value the process as much as the performance. We believe that theatre education should be enjoyable as well as instructive for all involved. Our program includes lessons, exercises, and performance opportunities that give students access to their voice, body, imagination, and creativity. Through the use of our carefully assembled curriculum, we hope to foster a deep love of the arts, as well as build a foundation of life skills that will serve our students for years to come.
