Personalized instruction from teachers who know theater.


I regard the theater as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being.
Oscar Wilde
Here at Knox Theater, we take an education-first approach in our lessons and programs. We believe that the Performing Arts is the vehicle that drives young people to become inquisitive about the world and its history, to have more empathy for their fellow human beings, and to find out who they truly are so they can share it with the world.
The show may eventually end, but the memories will last a lifetime.
