Students on Stage

Students on Stage A safe place for students to freely express themselves through musical theater performances! Welcome To Students on Stage! What Makes Our Shows So Special?

We are a non-profit after school theater program that teaches students how to sing, dance, and act while putting on a quality musical theater performance. We focus on building confidence and working as a team as well as production value in our show. We want to offer excellent training to our students and help them grow in their musical theater skills. All proceeds from registration fees, ticket sa

les, and any other donation goes back to our program and shows. Our productions have been well received by the community and we aim to continue to produce quality family entertainment that our students can feel proud to be a part of. We strive to create a safe place for students to feel welcome and have a place where they can freely express themselves through theater arts in a supportive community. Our goal is to put on shows that feel like more than just an elementary or middle school show; shows that have spark and flare and have our audience walking away in awe of what our students can do! The way we accomplish this is by having a high standard for our production value. Wonderful sets and costumes, microphones that work for our leading characters, lights that help tell the story, and all the bells and whistles that go a long with putting on a stunning production. How Do We Accomplish This? We have a wonderful community of support. When your student signs up for one of our shows, we aren’t just getting the student involved, we ask that the family gets involved too and donate some time to help with our production. This is how we have such dazzling productions; it’s because our parent volunteers help us reach that high standard of a quality show. We couldn’t do it without support and we have found that most of our volunteers end up with a new outlook for theater and new way of connecting with their student after helping on one of our shows! We also have wonderful donors that make our program possible. If you would like more information on how you can support Students on Stage through donation please email: [email protected].

Special thanks to Jenn Simantel for her years of dedication and the positive contributions she has made to Students on Stage. She is amazing and we do not know how we will go on without her. Wishing Jenn all the best in her Students on Stage "retirement"!

The Simantel Scholarship has been established in her honor. It shall be bestowed annually to a 7th grade student who consistently demonstrates kindness, responsibility, and integrity both on and off the stage. The recipient leads by example, supporting their castmates, showing respect to directors, crew, and volunteers, while maintaining a positive attitude throughout the production process. Recognizing dedication, teamwork, and genuine care for others makes one not only a strong performer, but an outstanding member of the community.



We are so grateful for you.
