San Diego Junior Theatre
Our 61st Season of Shows 2008-2009

About Our Shows

Welcome to San Diego Junior Theatre’s 61st Season... a season of magic! Join us on our two stages as we explore enchanted worlds from Paris, France to the far reaches of China; from Paw Paw, Michigan to the wonderful Land of Oz. Whether you’re a Munchkin or a big, friendly giant, JT’s season of ten enchanted shows is sure to conjure up some theatre magic for you!

Desha Crownover, Artistic Director

Plays
This season, we have ten productions on two stages — designed and directed by highly qualified theatre arts professionals — featuring the acting, singing and dancing of our students ages 8 to 18. All other roles, such as stagehands and ushers, are also filled by our students.

Ten Productions!

Classes
Each year, our education department offers over three hundred classes in acting, singing and dance to young San Diegans. And we’ve expanded our programs. Recently, Junior Theatre has entered into partnerships with the City of Chula Vista and the La Jolla YMCA, opening two satellite campuses: in South Bay at The Theatre on Third, and in La Jolla, at the La Jolla Firehouse YMCA Theatre.

Community Outreach
Our community outreach programs are tailor-made to meet the specific needs of schools, such as our program at Memorial Academy in Logan Heights, which offers after-school classes free-of-charge.

One of our most successful ongoing community outreach programs has been our partnership with the St. Vincent de Paul / Toussaint Teen Center, a center for the homeless. Together, we help hundreds of children discover the joys of self-expression and creation as they write and develop a full-length musical presentation performed in the Casa del Prado Theatre.

Junior Theatre Auxiliary
Also, an auxiliary membership of family and friends actively assists with the productions. Join today!
