Encore Stage and Studio is a theater program for kids ages 6 months to 18 years old in Arlington, Virginia. For 50 years, Encore Stage & Studio has given children in Arlington an opportunity to grow and discover themselves through theatre: onstage, backstage, in the classroom, and in the audience. They offer classes, split up into age-appropriate levels, for kids who can't crawl to kids who are heading to college. For the youngest students, they emphasize the excitement of discovering the power of the imagination and how a story can be told on stage. They move forward by helping students focus on the creative process: what can they create as a team? In addition to classes, Encore Stage and Studio offers mini-camps, spring break camps and summer camps, as well as the opportunity for kids to perform in shows for them, by them.
