Powered by GoogleMy son had a tough year and until recently hadn’t wanted to ever be in front of anyone. As far back as preschool he wouldn’t get up for concerts. Theater of the Imagination’s camp helped him find self confidence, joy, acceptance, and warmth. What an incredible program. Im so glad to have found them!
My kids went here for a camp and they seemed to love it. Plus the staff and Mr. Miles are amazing.
Theatre of Imagination is a safe place for our children to act, play and learn. My child was able to learn both acting and leadership skills. He flourished in his love for acting and did a phenomenal job at it. This place is the place where our children hone in on their acting skills, curate their creativity, flow in their imagination and act out their dreams. My son was able to come back as an alumni and participate with the Littles. This was so beautiful! I appreciate this GEM. I had a great sense of security each time I brought him to class. So much that I would take the commute from Liberty, Mo all the way to OP! The development and confidence my son received was truly worth it! Thank you TI!
My girl lives in fear of standing in front of a crowd no longer! In a mere four days, Miles and the entire staff at Theatre of the Imagination took my daughter from nausea at the notion of performing to a spotlit grin and eagerness to do it again ASAP. In one week, the kids prepare to perform original content Miles has written singularly for kids in his 25 years running this program, so it's funny, accessible, and inclusive and it strikes a magical vibration in which both kids and parents revel. For my new-to-theatre girlie, I cannot say enough good things about Theatre for the Imagination!
OUTSTANDING! My daughter has enjoyed countless classes and camps with Theatre of the Imagination. Miles and his team do a fantastic job of creating a safe and fun environment for kids to be creative and silly. The themes and performances are hilarious and even friends love joining to see what the kids have been up to! For our summer camps, I have never seen my daughter more thrilled to go to camp everyday. Thank you, Miles and Team! Kansas City is lucky to have this talented group working with our young theatre super stars!
