About us

We are a group of volunteers dedicated to building and maintaining a theatre community by exposing our young cast members to all elements of theatre including singing, acting, dancing, stage makeup and all aspects of theatre production.

Our purpose is to enrich the lives of children in our community through the art of musical theatre. 

River Place Student Theatre is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization providing students zoned to attend River Place Elementary the opportunity to participate in a professional musical theatre experience.
