MISSION
The “Kids with a Cause: Children’s Theater Company”, a non-profit 501c3 organization, is rooted in the belief that through the magic of theater as a tool for moral reasoning, children and youth can become the voices of positive change and agents of healing in their communities. Informed by a social-justice imperative at its core CTC’s critically acclaimed musical catalog and programs explore the theater’s power to impact diversity, to develop empathy and compassion, and through that communion, to learn from lives we’ve never lived.
Inspired by the society-building principles of the Baha’i Faith, CTC believes that the highest form of artistic expression lies in its capacity to promote social good and foster positive change.
