Welcome to Children's Arts Theatre School

Children's Arts Theatre School is celebrating its 14th successful year
as a professional theatre school for students ages 3 years to 18 years. Founded in 1994, the first theatre facility in Toronto was based at Bloor and Spadina located at 427 Bloor St. W.
Gina Anki, the founder and Artistic Theatre Director of Children's Arts Theatre School opened the doors to aspiring young actors wishing to explore the creative process of theatre in a unique art-based school.

Now, established in 5 different locations across the GTA, Children's Arts Theatre School continues to welcome new students who share in our mission to enrich the community through the performing arts.

Our Mission

The cornerstone of our mission is to provide an environment where young adults can experience
the transformational magic of live theatre!
From trust-forming theatre games,
sophisticated groups improvisation
to full-scale theatrical productions
young actors have the opportunity to
develop the power of concentration,
improve thinking processes,
encourage spontaneous expression and
develop self-confidence.

But most importantly they have FUN!"
