The Roxy Young Company Classes provide youth with the opportunity to develop their theatre skills, build friendships, and experience a sense of belonging. Act 1 Fall Classes emphasize performance, while Act 2 delves into all aspects of theatre. Throughout the programs, participants work diligently to refine their abilities, boost their confidence, and cultivate a supportive, creative community.
