The Fort Lauderdale Junior Program invites young artists to work with a professional team of teaching artists to brainstorm, write, design, compose, choreograph, and produce an original musical in just three weeks. The story is created entirely by the students, giving each participant a meaningful role in bringing the show to life.
Perfect for ages 8–13, this youth theatre program welcomes writers, performers, musicians, designers, and creative thinkers of any experience level. Whether your child is new to the stage or already loves performing, they’ll build skills, confidence, and friendships through daily collaboration.
Lovewell provides a supportive, inspiring, and inclusive environment where every young artist belongs—and where their collective imagination becomes a one-of-a-kind original musical
