Performance Opportunities for Youth & Teens

RPAC Youth MainStage and Teen Workshop performances pair youth and teen performers aged 8-17 in rehearsals and preparation for a live musical & theatre production experience on the ROH and RPAC stages. Celebrating the diversity & inclusion of our theater program, youth performers and professional instructors join together to create an incredible show! 

Rehearsals and pre-production will be led by highly qualified, esteemed adult professionals from Rochester Opera House & RPAC. Lights, Sound, Costumes and Theatre Etiquette are important elements of any RPAC production, and our Young Performers become immersed in all facets of theatre while preparing for their production.
Youth Mainstage
​This program is open to youth and teens aged 8-17. There is an audition process in which everyone must participate. Regardless of someone's age or experience, we believe this to be an essential part of a production process. All participants will be cast in their production through the audition process, unless a script calls for a specific number of actors.
Teen Workshop
​This program is open to teens aged 12-17. Teen Workshop focuses on turning plays on their head, developing performances based around current events, and finding innovation in performance and playwriting. There is an audition process in which everyone must participate. Regardless of someone's age or experience, we believe this to be an essential part of a production process. All participants will be cast in their production through the audition process, unless a script calls for a specific number of actors.
