Beacon Falls Youth Theater Company

“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.” – Helen Keller

The Beacon Falls Youth Theater Company relies heavily on volunteers. Volunteers are the backbone of our organization. Parents, community members, and students, are all encouraged to reach out to us for volunteer opportunities. Theater experience is a plus but certainly not required. All that is required is a willingness to help, a caring heart, and a reassuring smile!
