A Note from Our Founder - August 2023

Dearest Theatre Families,

The production team and I are so humbled by the continued interest in Westside Children’s Theatre. Although we tried our hardest to open back up after the pandemic, the stumbling blocks have been too great. We are committed to working on it for one more year and will provide updates of any news on our website.

Creatively Yours,

Jerelyn Newman

Artistic Director & Founder

Westside Children’s Theatre

Ignite a spark.

Our mission is to ignite a spark in young actors that prepares them to shine ever so brightly on and off the stage. We take pride in providing an exceptional, community-focused theatre education for the whole child.

Build
confidence.

We are here for so much more than putting on an excellent show. Our teaching philosophy centers around guiding students toward the tool box needed to value themselves & their peers as artists and human beings. Confidence is knowing that making mistakes is essential for learning and growing!
