Who we are at First Light  
 

First Light Theatre provides engaging experiences in Drama for young people from primary school age to high school. While learning the craft of Drama through acting workshops, classes, and full scale theatrical production students build skills in communication, risk-taking, commitment, leadership and cooperation.

First Light Theatre is a group of working theatre professionals who share a common goal; to promote the creative growth of children and youth through Drama classes, workshops and productions. Our collective experience ensures a positive environment where students can learn and develop new skills that are sure to be beneficial not only in a theatre environment, but in everyday life.
