Ottawa Children’s Theatre

About the Artist

Founded in 2013, The Ottawa Children’s Theatre is dedicated to theatre that is by, for, and about youth. Our mandate comes out of a deep and profound desire to enrich the lives of children and youth through theatre and the performing arts. We’re process-oriented, and our class sizes are small to ensure maximum attention on each student.

Now more than ever, the arts can provide a platform for people to ask big questions and explore what is fundamentally important to them.
