Our Voices In The Community
Here at JPAC , We encourage programs that are designed for each age group, giving your performer their time to shine. We do not believe in the third tree from the left . We keep our classes and production sizes small to ensure that each child receives the most personalized training. Our goal is to instill confidence, self esteem and accomplishment within our performer while also cultivating friendship, support and empathy for each other.
Although we do not supply costumes, we will share whatever we have in our magic closet!!
donations are always appreciated.
We strive to keep our programs affordable and each production is on average $12.50 per hour for your child. We cannot give sibling discounts as we truly cannot go any lower and maintain our company, staff and cost of programs.
We do offer PAY LATER through PayPal upon check out for payment plans.
WINTER PROGRAMS FULL
SPRING PROGRAM RELEASE AT END OF JANUARY 2026
Unfortunately we can no longer accept registrations or hold spots without payment . We do have the PAYPAL PAY LATER option for your convenience.
If you would like to be added to our Financial aid/Sponsorship program list, please email Nikki @ jpatheater@gmail.com
Our children learn through play!! So what better way than for your child to imagine , create and perform their own characters. We build a story , throw in a couple of fabulous songs and before you know it.... We have a GREAT SHOW !! You are never too young to get started in Theatre!!

Dorothy In Wonderland
Dorothy, Toto and the characters of Oz get caught in another whirlwind that sweeps them off to Wonderland, where they meet Alice, White Rabbit, Mad Hatter, March Hare, the Cheshire Cat and many more! It’s truly a mad adventure! And you thought the Wicked Witch of the West was bad? Now they face a dangerous new foe — the Queen of Hearts!

HOMESCHOOL OPTION
Grannie Smith and her charming but clumsy granddaughter, Petunia Pearl, run the Hoot ‘n’ Holler Hotel. Sadly, they’re behind on the mortgage, and even Sheriff Kirk Ketchum and his self-appointed deputy, Hal Holdem, can’t seem to stop dastardly villain Duke Dreadful from swooping in and buying up the place. So when world traveling Bonnie Voyage returns from a trip to Italy and suggests a spaghetti sauce contest with enough prize money to pay the mortgage, Grannie and Petunia enter to save their beloved hotel. But Duke will stop at nothing to get what he wants — which includes the hand of Petunia — and enlists the help of accomplice Saucy Sally to cheat his way to victory.
Adventures of A Comic Book Artist
Everyone loves comic book superheroes, so both cast and audience will love this action-packed spoof of the comic book genre complete with hysterical singing superheroes and dancing villains. Wunderman had ordered a set of magical pens guaranteed to bring to life any character drawn. When plans go awry and his staff of artists unwittingly create the dreaded super-villain Doctor Shock Clock, it is up to Stanley to save the day with his own superheroes — charismatic but egotistical Star Guy, speedy Triple Time, environmentally correct Blossom, and cranky little Wombat Woman! Stanley’s heroes battle Shock Clock and his henchmen, the Minutos, only to be saved in the end by the greatest superhero of them all — Eraser Man (aka Stanley Leonardo Sappovitz)

A MADCAP MYSTERY
Todd Wallinger
There’s mayhem in the mansion! When the greedy family of the recently deceased mystery author Byron Pembroke gathers on a dark and stormy evening (of course!) for the reading of his will, each family member can practically taste the dough! But his four adult children soon find out that the rich and famous author isn’t done creating mysteries. Instead of naming an heir, Byron instead condensed his fortune into one mysterious object and left it to... whoever finds it first!
