Making Theatre Accessible

The Sacramento Area Regional Theatre Alliance is proud to offer our YES (Youth Education Scholarship) Program! We believe in the power of theater to transform lives. Whether your student is an experienced theater kid or just exploring the idea of getting involved, the Sacramento theater community has a program for you! From Woodland to Stockton, and Davis to Volcano, there is sure to be a workshop, class, or educational program to fit the needs of you and your student. Too overwhelmed by the vast amount of opportunity and need a hand selecting a program? Email us and we’ll be happy to assist!
