                          understands the unique needs of families.

                           

                          Paige Productions Youth Theater is an exciting place where kids & teens can find fresh performance opportunities in the Fountain Hills & Scottsdale areas. This company works under a limited rehearsal schedule allowing students to participate in theater year-round. This format allows them to participate in other shows, school activities, studio dance programs and sports, while prepping for a theatrical production.


                          "Paige Productions is a great place for BUSY KIDS!"


                          The flexible rehearsal schedule allows kids to travel with their family on breaks

                          and gets kids home early on school nights.


                          We are happy to work around other activities & shows as much as possible. Our goal is to provide performing arts opportunities for busy kids, and help young performers make up for lost time due to the pandemic.
