SOME OF OUR GRADUATES

 

“WE’RE REHEARSING FOR LIFE.”

Most theater programs prepare kids to be actors, dancers, or singers. RTKids prefers to do it all. Through a range of in-school programs and programs at Maravel Arts Center, our dedicated staff provides a thorough, well-rounded theater education. But, that’s not all! We also emphasize the larger TRIPLE THREAT of academics, nutrition, and art. With all these skills under our kids’ belts, we ensure they’re ready for success. Help us achieve our goals…
