The Broadway Brats elementary performance group began in Portland, Oregon in 1996! The Brats are divided into two groups by grade in school and this fall, each group will rehearse their own 30-minute holiday program. The Brats perform in several area venues as well as in a special concert for family and friends. The Broadway Brats experience includes speaking lines, costumes, music and dance opportunities for each student.

  • Broadway Brats gives children a chance to sing, dance and act in a safe and nurturing environment.

  • There were lots of speaking lines and fun for everyone.

  • The performances were held at Rachel's School of Dance and for several local community groups in the area.

  • Tuition is $30.00 per month. A $10.00 non-refundable deposit is required. 10% discount for pre-paying the full amount.

Music, Movement and Story Drama

for children from 3 years to 5 years old

Each year Northwest Youth Theatre teaches several sessions of KinderDrama, an exciting music and story drama class for 4 through 6 year old children. A love of music and stories is shared by most children, and KinderDrama gives them the opportunity to meet new friends as they explore music, movement and story drama! Costumes and props make the experience even more fun. The director of the group is Lois Lents. With over 20 years of experience in the field of children’s theatre, Lois loves working with very young children.

Northwest Youth Theatre is dedicated to providing opportunities for children to explore their interest in the performing arts in a fun, safe and nurturing environment. Class size is limited so students have plenty of interaction with the teachers. The emphasis of this class is not on performance, but on the experience of singing, moving to music, games and acting out stories. It’s a lot of fun and children begin to develop confidence and self-expression skills that will benefit them for a lifetime! Of course, we will have a demonstration for family and friends on the last day of our classes. Parents are welcome to attend KinderDrama sessions at any time.
