The Children's Theatre Company (CTC) exists to create extraordinary theatre experiences, and to advance theatre as a means of educating, challenging and inspiring young people. Established in 1965, CTC has grown to become the leading professional theatre company for young people in North America, and among the three largest in the world. Recipient of the 2003 Regional Theatre Tony® Award and numerous other honors, CTC is committed to improving the quality of life for children and families in our community, state and region. CTC is held in high esteem by its peers nationally and internationally, and serves as a catalyst for the field. CTC serves 275,000 to 350,000 young people and families annually in five key program areas each year: stage productions, new play development, community partnerships, theatre arts training, and an annual regional tour.
