About Us :
The YS Kids Playhouse is a not-for-profit arts organization founded in 1995 by artistic director John Fleming, located in Yellow Springs, a small rural community home to Antioch College. Each year approximately 100 youth ages ten to eighteen participate in a six week Summer Theatre Arts Immersion, from auditions through rehearsals and the final presentation of two summer productions including a full-length musical. Other programs include Tween Youth Workshops, ages five to ten, for those too young for the stage; a youth leadership progam, DaBigs, and outreach programs to neighboring communities. Our sophisticated entertainment for all ages brings about transformational experiences for youth participants, families, audiences, and our community.
Mission :
The mission of the YSKP is to cultivate the development of future actors, leaders, patrons and audiences and enhance art awareness in our community through the creation of original multi-media theater for youth.
