Spend Summer on Stage with St. Pete’s premier Youth Theater and Leadership Program. At St. Pete MAD, we deliver a transformative arts and student success education that nurtures young talent in a supportive and dynamic environment. Our aim is to equip budding performers with the skills to be bold, confident, and adaptable, both on stage and off. We develop leaders. Not followers.
We open our doors to learners of all backgrounds and skill levels, celebrating diversity in experience. Our commitment lies in creating a welcoming community that inspires curiosity, unity, and collaborative learning. Our dedicated team of arts educators, active professionals in the theater world, bring a wealth of knowledge and a deep passion for teaching and mentoring. They are adept in modern teaching methods, culturally aware, and champions of inclusive practices.
Scholarships available. Financial Aid form coming soon. Email [email protected] for more information.
