Educational Opportunities
Duluth Playhouse Conservatory / Youth Repertory Theatre Company
Welcome students and families!Our mission: The Duluth Playhouse Conservatory is committed to providing exciting, innovative, and quality theatre arts education for the Northeast Region. Theatre is a fully active art form - it engages the mind and body so that learning is layered and lasting. We have an array of creative, fun, and challenging opportunities for young people to explore the power of performance.
About our classes: For the 5 & 6-year-olds, our classes offer an environment for fostering imagination and enhancing self-confidence. These classes are ideal for young kids looking to play with performance. Our series for 7- to 9-year-olds offers fundamental theatre training in a relaxed atmosphere, ideal for elementary students seeking a creative outlet or for those seeking the spotlight! The material for our older groups (10 years and up) is slightly more advanced and geared toward engaging middle and high school students together in the nitty-gritty of stage and film acting.
