Welcome!
Welcome to Grand, Travelers, & Scrim (GTS) Youth Theatre, a volunteer based company. GTS believes that there should be opportunities for enrichment in youth's lives through participation in the performing arts. Theatre is magic, magic that happens when a group comes together with the shared love of theatre to form a community, a family. That moment after weeks of hard work everyone comes together for an evening of entertainment and escape from reality. A magic we would like to have the youth create and experience first hand. To the young people: Our main goal is to provide all of you with a space to come and be yourselves. And if you don’t know who you are yet, well, we want to be somewhere that you feel safe enough to figure that out.
While theatre is a challenge during Covid, our first couple productions will be on a virtual platform that will be streamed live for audiences to enjoy. Hopefully, in the near future we will be on stage to provide in person entertainment. Last but not least, GTS is a year-round all-inclusive youth theatre group and we encourage anyone 5-17 years of age to come out, audition, volunteer, and become a part of the family.

Maggie Able, Executive director
Maggie Able has been creating theatre for 40 years. She has worked with several companies in multiple states, which allowed her to study her craft with artisans near and far. "I have always believed the best way to learn is to jump in with both feet and work beside talented, knowledgeable people.” With a life focused around theatre, Maggie has honed in on directing, stage managing, and costuming and made those areas her specialties. Maggie is excited to be starting this new adventure with GTS. |
