For nearly 50 years, Charleston Stage has been where Lowcountry kids find their voice. Some of our students go on to Broadway and professional stages across the country. Most grow into braver, more creative, more confident people, in the classroom, at work, and in their community. Both are exactly the point. Tell us about your young artist, and we'll help you find the right place to start.

Apprentice Program →More than 15,000 students each season experience live professional theatre through specially priced weekday matinees, with study guides for the classroom.
For Educators →We bring theatre directly into classrooms across the Lowcountry, with a special commitment to schools with the greatest need.
Bring Us In →Ready-to-use arts-integrated workshop kits that bring literature to life through drama, music, and movement, aligned to South Carolina standards.
