Journey Theater Arts Group

I’ve found Journey Theater Arts Group to be absolutely inspiring. I truly don’t know where I would be without it! The people are so warm and welcoming and working on a show with them just makes you feel like you’re part of one big family. As well as the family-​like atmosphere, JTAG teaches so many valuable skills that someone needs to know to survive in the world of theater (and in the regular world too), while at the same time providing an amazingly fun outlet for creativity. Even if you don’t think you’re creative, you can find something here. Kids have the opportunity to take specialized classes on acting, dancing, singing, and occasionally improv, costume, makeup, and other classes too. Kids can audition for a musical (which has given me an immense amount of joy — I can’t even express how much) or if they don’t feel confident in being on stage, they can join crew (some theaters call it tech). They can run lights, sound, move sets, work mics, etc. so there really is something for everyone. If all this wasn’t enough, JTAG teaches kids valuable moral lessons they’ll need in all aspects of life, theater related or not. Although this is a Christ-​based program, even kids who aren’t Christian feel welcome here, which is what makes this theater so truly unique. To sum all this up, I give Journey Theater Arts Group two thumbs up, five gold stars, my personal stamp of approval (with enthusiasm), a gold star, and all that jazz.
