To discover new youth troupe members, CSC invites families to Open Day. During this joyful, no-cost workshop, participants will work alongside CSC’s professional adult artists in a series of theater, movement, and music games that celebrate imagination, collaboration, and play. At CSC, your child doesn’t just learn to perform; they gain vital life skills through genuine artistic collaboration with professionals who value their creative ideas. This unique mentorship model builds confidence, creative thinking, communication skills, and emotional intelligence that serves them in all areas of life.
While CSC Open Day is not a formal audition, it’s the primary entry point for young artists interested in joining the CSC Youth Troupe this season. Participants who demonstrate creativity, teamwork, and enthusiasm may be invited to perform in the 2026 Creative Stage Spectacular — a multigenerational original theater production that brings together professional artists and talented young collaborators.
About Creative Stage Collective
Creative Stage Collective brings together youth and professional artists to co-create original kid-inspired theater with a spirit of playfulness and community that envisions a more empathetic world. CSC stands at the unique intersection of professional theater and children’s creative development, forging a distinctive space where young imaginations and professional expertise combine to create performances that are both artistically excellent and socially meaningful. Unlike traditional youth theater programs or professional companies that occasionally work with children, CSC’s collaborative model places equal value on both professional artistry and childhood imagination, creating a genuinely multigenerational creative community that produces work reflecting the depth, joy, and innovative thinking that emerges when generations create together.
