Rising Stars
Here at SF Playhouse we believe theatre is all about shared human experience. Participating in theatre, for people of any age, is a rigorous, dynamic, exciting collaboration that stimulates the imagination, and encourages connection, creativity and hard work. However, in the current climate of school budget cuts and dwindling arts programs, the cost of attending professional theatre is prohibitive, and participation is limited for many young people. Rising Stars at SF Playhouse is committed to providing quality theatre education for our community, both in Bay Area schools and at our theatre in San Francisco.
