Acting & Musical Theatre Classes for Kids & Teens in Pasadena

"I have learned so much, not only about musical theatre, but also about life and how to be professional and independent. T360 is so much more than a semi-professional children’s theatre company. It gives kids and teenagers an experience every production."

“At Theatre 360, you don’t just learn how to be a performer; you learn how to do it all! I was taught the importance of hard-work, discipline, and of course; how to have fun. Some of my best friends today were made at Theatre 360 at age 9! The education I received from Theatre 360 has been engrained in me as a performer, producer, and as a person. Devon teaches all of her students how to respect the work and each other, and instills an important sense of discipline that you cannot get anywhere else. Without the foundation that Theatre 360 set for me, I would not have been successful at my high school, L.A. County High School for the Arts, my college, Wagner College, and now as a post-grad in the professional world. Theatre 360 is a place where you can reach the next level as a performer and as a person.”

Wow! We were thrilled when Anders got the call to do Linus in “You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown.” And while he didn’t disappoint there; three years later he showed just how much he had learned and absorbed from the Theatre 360 program when he stepped into the role of Harold Hill in “Music Man.” As two proud grandparents, with a lifetime of theatre experience, we applaud the fabulous theatre program that Devon Yates and her staff have built. It’s really all about the kids and of course wonderful theatre experiences.

I truly believe my experience and training at Theatre 360 prepared me for a career in the arts. I was a student at the company for 10+ years and I still apply the principles I learned in my classes to my day to day life working on Broadway. Theatre 360 taught me to be a "curious artist" and always say "yes" to new opportunities, in addition to giving me the confidence in myself to succeed. There aren't many performing arts training studios that will expose you to acting onstage in addition to working backstage/behind the scenes--which is why I'd recommend this company to anyone.

My daughter has been part of the Theatre 360 program since she was 4 years old. She has gone from fun classes where play and communication are encouraged, to more challenging acting and dance classes where dedication and commitment are expected to roles from ensemble to lead in full scale shows. Along the way I have watched her grow not only as an artist but also in her dedication, drive, mentorship of the younger performers and in her self-confidence as an artist. The lessons learned at Theatre 360 provide life long value whether heading to Broadway, the Board Room or any place else.
