The mission of Filament Theatre is to create a more equitable society by celebrating and amplifying the perspectives and experiences of young people through the performing arts.
Currently Filament Theatre is running RAIN, for babies and their carers, an exhibit experience for babies not yet walking and their adults. Next up, for all ages, will be Farewell Opportunity. This piece, ideal for those ages 7-14, is a perfect more traditional theatrical piece suited for everyone in the family.
Filament productions are impossible without the wonderful experience and creativity of our youth collaborators, key collaborators being our campers. Filament Camps focus on amplifying the creativity of young participants. In a Filament camp, participants work with the theatre's directors, playwrights, and teaching artists to directly influence the plays they'll come to see throughout the year!
This summer, participants will grow their skills in creative problem solving, teamwork, confident public speaking, analysis of text, speaking directly to the audience, community engagement, and more - all while creating something fun that makes them proud! All camps culminate in a final performance for family and friends
