junior program

Established in 2011, Williamstown Musical Theatre Company’s junior program is open to young performers aged between 8–18 years old and aims to provide them with high quality creative learning experiences in the theatre arts. A positive, supportive and fun environment is encouraged to promote and develop self-respect, confidence, awareness, imagination, creativity, determination and social skills in young people. Cast members also develop discipline, memorization techniques, motor skills, coordination, and many other crucial foundation skills through creative dramatics and, in doing so, enhance their self-esteem, grace, and poise, both onstage and off.

Developed with the intention of sharing our passion for musical theatre with children and teens so that they, in turn, can continue this creative tradition as teachers, performers and arts patrons for generations to come, we hope you can encourage all our young performers by your support.

What they say

  • I congratulate the company on their level of organisation and professionalism which was evident from the Meet and Greet and was maintained throughout the rehearsal period, production week and through the run of six wonderful shows.

    The sets, costumes, props, music, lighting and level of enthusiasm combined made this the best junior show I have ever seen.

    Thank you to Williamstown Musical Theatre Company for always making us feel welcome and giving us the opportunity to become involved and part of such a great company.

  • Our daughter has loved every moment of the production – every rehearsal, every dance step, every note, every clothes fitting. She has met the most amazing kids and forged great friendships and that is something she never expected from this experience.

    After every rehearsal she would talk non-stop all the way home about all the ins and outs and even I loved every moment of that! I saw three shows and every one of them was amazing and left me breathless and speechless. I am so proud of Jess – so thank you all.
