The Standard Theatre Company
Youth Conservatory
Foundations Division
Ages 4-8
The Foundations Division introduces our youngest artists to the joy of theatre through imagination, storytelling, music, and movement. Students build confidence, creativity, and early stage skills in a supportive environment designed to nurture curiosity and self-expression. Classes and productions focus on ensemble play, character exploration, and foundational performance skills while fostering a lifelong love of the arts.
Studio Division
Ages 9–13
The Studio Division expands students’ performance skills through structured training in acting, voice, movement, and ensemble collaboration. Young artists begin developing stage technique while learning how to rehearse, create characters, and work as part of a theatrical company. This division offers both training-based workshops and performance opportunities designed to strengthen confidence, discipline, and artistic growth.
Conservatory Division
High School
The Conservatory Division provides advanced theatrical training for high school artists ready to deepen their craft. Students engage in focused acting work, rehearsal processes, and collaborative productions that mirror professional theatre practices. Opportunities include workshop-style training, full productions, and select pre-professional experiences designed to prepare students for collegiate theatre programs and future work in the performing arts.
