The Young Company at Greater Boston Stage company offers Summer programs for students entering grades 1-12 and 2019 high school graduates.

Hello Friends,

"I gurantee Summer Festival will change your life."
                                            -Ava Laroche, Young Company Student

Good Theatre Makes Good People is our motto and we are sticking it. For the past 18 Summers we are extremely proud of all of the good theatre that has resulted from our professional process oriented rehearsals and workshops AND all of the good people our supportive, caring, and individualized environment has helped foster.

“Summer Festival has become a second home to me. It has fostered my love for theatre in ways I could have never imagined, and you’ll only find that experience at GBSC. In addition, I have been welcomed into a family of both youth and adults that have shown me what true compassion looks like”
                                               - Antonia Turilli, Young Company Student
 
Whether you’ve been doing theatre your entire life or this will be your first time on stage, the Summer Festival has something new and exciting for you. Professional training. Individual care. Friendships that will last a lifetime. What more could you ask for?


Hope to see you soon!
