OnStage Program

OnStage, introduced in 2008, is a traveling children's theatre program that provides everything a school needs to develop an onsite musical production – props, costumes, sets, and experienced directors. From auditions to the final curtain call, OnStage staff works with elementary or middle school students and staff to put on a junior musical in just a few weeks. This program is often a Tulare County student's first introduction to live theatre. Many of the amazing kids you see starring in our big summer productions got their start when OnStage came to their elementary school.

Educators who are interested in bringing OnStage to their school are encouraged to email mg.swarts@tcoe.org.
