KIDS WHO CARE

TOURING COMPANY

Changing the World One Musical at a Time

Looking to continue your theatre education and further your performance experience? Check out The Kids Who Care Touring Company! This group of 50-55 energetic performers ranging from ages 6 to 18 take KWC’s original works on the road from September through May, performing for schools, city councils, and hospitals across the state. They spread the KWC message of the power of changing the world through creative expression

Helmed by Founding Executive Director Deborah Jung, and directed on tour by Education & Touring Company Director Sydnie Roy, the Touring Company trains under talented teaching artists and experienced professionals. In addition to performing, these young artists take voice, acting, and dance classes two days a week at KWC Performing Arts, learn entrepreneurial leadership skills and act as ambassadors of KWC.

The Touring Company meets three (3) times a week during the school year, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday evenings from 4:30 PM – 6:30 PM. For more information, email Sydnie Roy at sydnie@kidswhocare.org

What People are Saying

We have booked Kids Who Care for the Leadership North Texas opening retreat since the program started in 2009. These young leaders are impressive, engaging and have no trouble coaxing adults out of their comfort zones. The feedback each year is always the same: The future is a bright place with these young leaders!

The first time I saw Kids Who Care perform was at the Ronald McDonald House in Fort Worth. Not only was the kids' performance beautiful and artistically impressive, but the message was so powerful. It was the first time these kids moved me to tears, but certainly not the last. It was the perfect complement to the Ronald McDonald House's Topping Out ceremony.
