Theater Classes and Productions

At Jabberwocky, the benefits and fun of theater are opened to everyone regardless of income, race, prior experience or identity! We need all types of people to tell all of today's stories.

  • Get ready to laugh, create, and perform! The Jabbaerwocky Improv Club is a fun, high-energy space where young performers learn the art of improvisation — creating characters, stories, and scenes right on the spot. Improv helps kids build confidence, teamwork, and quick thinking while encouraging imagination and creativity through games and storytelling challenges.
    Club members will have the exciting opportunity to audition for our Improv Team and showcase their talents in live public performances throughout the season. No scripts, no limits — just pure fun and creativity on stage!

  • Step into the world of sound, storytelling, and science! In this week-long STEAM & Theatre Workshop, kids will explore the art of voice-over acting for radio, TV, animation, and video games while discovering how technology brings stories to life. Participants will study folk tales from around the world and use creative writing, sound design, and performance techniques to adapt them into original podcast episodes.
    From microphones to mixing, students will experience every step of the production process — blending imagination, performance, and innovation. Join us and let your voice tell the story!

  • This summer, join us for an unforgettable journey to the Land of Oz! In our Wizard of Oz Theatre Camp, kids will dive into the magic of musical theatre — singing, dancing, and acting their way through this timeless story. Campers will also get hands-on experience designing costumes, painting sets, and helping bring the world of Oz to life both onstage and behind the scenes.
    By the end of camp, our young performers will showcase their hard work in a full production of The Wizard of Oz for family and friends. It’s creativity, teamwork, and pure theatre magic — all rolled into one amazing adventure!
