Help Us Spark Creativity, Empathy, and Confidence in Vermont Teens!

Since 1995, Vermont Stage’s education programs have empowered more than 15,000 middle and high school students to discover their voices and tell their stories through the art of theatre. As we embark on our 31st Season, we’re asking for your help to keep these programs thriving and accessible for years to come.

Our Education Programs


Vermont Young Playwrights
Our longest-running education initiative brings professional teaching artists into schools to guide students through the process of writing their own original plays. The program ends with a festival where selected plays are performed by professional actors.  Over 13,000 students served across Vermont since 1995.

Teen Tour Program 
Launched in 2024, this program tours a professional production to middle and high schools statewide—from Burlington to Brattleboro—bringing live theatre directly to students, sparking meaningful dialogue, and fostering empathy. Over 3,500 students reached annually and growing.

Scholarships and Subsidies
We are committed to breaking down financial barriers. Our goal is to offer subsidies to 30% of participants, ensuring that all students have access to these transformative experiences, regardless of their ability to pay.
