Fort Wayne Youtheatre

The Fort Wayne Youtheatre's mission is to educate, engage, and entertain regional youth and families through theatre arts.

Fort Wayne Youtheatre is committed to making theatre education accessible to all young artists. We’re proud to offer full and partial scholarships for qualifying students to participate in our classes and camps. Financial aid is awarded based on need and availability of funds. Because resources are limited, each program requires a separate application, and submitting an application does not guarantee assistance. We believe every child deserves the chance to grow, create, and shine through the performing arts — and we’re here to help make that possible.
