Imagination Makers Theater Company

"Bringing professional theater to young people in schools"

I started teaching in 1970. I personally have never laughed or teared up during an assembly or seen the kids deeply enjoy/feel during a performance as we did with yours today. BRAVO! — Joe Sindelar, teacher, Summit Elementary, Aurora

After School Classes

“Theater Arts with a heart – right at school!”

SUMMER 2012 MUSICAL THEATER CAMP:

We are excited to announce a summer camp that is being offered exclusively for children who have taken at least one of our Young Imagination Makers classes.  Your child will have the opportunity to work with former Imagination Makers company member Carlos Heredia, who is a musician, songwriter, director, playwright and actor.  Carlos will be directing the students in a musical play he has written specifically for this class.  The play will include parts of Imagination Makers’ plays that your child may have seen at their school and will be performed in a small local theater with lights!  This musical play will be in the style of Imagination Makers with limited sets, costumes and props, primarily gathered and/or made by the children themselves.

This camp will only be offered one time, and there are only 16 slots available on a first-come, first-served basis.
