Please join us while we celebrate another successful year of high quality youth theater at Celebrate Stages 2024, our annual fundraising event, on Sunday, April 21, 2024, starting at 3:00 p.m.!

This year, due to the increasing size of our audience, Celebrate Stages will be held in Cathedral Hall on the 4th Floor of the West Herr Performing Arts Center, just upstairs from Stages at 875 East Main Street, Rochester, NY.
What a great year we have had, with live theater performances, new classes, and summer camps! We hope you'll agree that Stages provides valuable experiences to our students as they develop self-confidence, teamwork, empathy, friendships, and theater skills.
Unlike many other local youth theater programs, A Magical Journey Thru Stages is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with a mission to provide high-quality youth theater experiences to the children in the Greater Rochester area. We have successfully pursued grants and other assistance to help with many of our staffing and facility needs, but as many of the COVID-era grants are expiring, donations from individuals and organizations are important.
Your tax-deductible gift to Stages helps us:
- buy production rights for next year's shows
- pay our student-focused artistic staff
- promote our high-quality family-friendly programs
- provide a safe and inclusive environment in which everyone can thrive
- invest in technology to improve performances, parent experience, and operations.
Please give generously!
