ABOUT

Mudlark Theater is a not-for-profit organization where children are taken seriously as artists, and learn theater by making it.  

Our residencies, classes, and camps teach life skills as well as theater arts. Our productions have real substance and tell innovative stories that surprise and delight all audiences.

Actors and students learn empathy, listening skills, public speaking, critical thinking, and collaboration—strengths that enhance their academic and personal growth, and will also prepare them to make a difference in any field they choose to enter.

At Mudlark, we strive to be a welcoming and safe space where the stories and identities of all youth are honored and celebrated.
