WORKSHOPS & CLASSES FOR YOUTH
 During the year, both SJCT staff and island theatre artists lead afterschool or summer workshops that include such themes as beginning acting, movement on stage, improvisation, singing and behind the scenes technical skills.
       

MUSICAL THEATRE CAMP
SJCT now offers a two-week day camp for beginners, and a three-week day camp for experienced actors ages 7 to 18, culminating in public musical theatre performances in the Whittier. Students are required to audition before they are able to register. 

 FAMILY THEATRE
Elementary school students (K-6) and their parents present a fully staged musical in the Whittier each Fall. Older siblings and relatives are encouraged to get involved on tech crew too!                        

SCHOOL PARTNERSHIPS
SJCT works with the San Juan Island School District and Spring Street International School on their annual productions presented in the Whittier and Gubelman Theatres. SJCT also offers high school students the opportunity to work with Production Staff as an intern through the school year and to get credit as part of FH High School's Work Experience program.
