The Mainstage Players (Ages 5-12)

CKP’s Mainstage Players programs are designed for students age 5-12 years old. We emphasize great theatre training while maintaining a low stress environment for the child. Our motto is that “Every Child Deserves a Moment In The Spotlight”, so we make sure to feature each Mainstage student. Everyone gets at least one line, every group gets a feature. No child gets lost in a crowd. Our Mainstage scripts are designed for children’s theatre, so our students can perform the material excellently.

As always at CKP, multiple professionals in drama, dance, and voice coach your child at every rehearsal. In a fun, encouraging environment our instructors meet each child where they are and gently nudge them to achieve more than the student thought possible.  It is an excellent, fun opportunity for growth for every cast member. No preparations are necessary to audition, everyone who registers gets a part. And the shows are always quite entertaining!

What our community is saying about us…

It is part of who he is now

My son is hooked.  He is hooked on the fun, the confidence building, the challenge, the different roles he takes on and mostly the true friendships that have developed because of Creative Kids.   He loves it all.  It becomes a family for these kids, a second family if you will.  He was hesitant in the beginning, and once he performed  for the first time, he hasn’t looked back.  He has probably done 12 performances and that doesn’t seem to be slowing down any time soon.  It is part of who he is now.  He is a well rounded great kid.  (if I do say so myself)  And who he is has a lot to do with Creative Kids Playhouse.
