| Welcome to TYA @ Home, a roundup of virtual performances for young audiences, online education programs, and digital content—offered during an unprecedented time when children can't physically visit the theatre, the rehearsal room, or the classroom. Share work with your colleagues. Offer these experiences to a young person in your life. Stay connected and inspired. | We encourage you to explore all of the content and resources below, and donate to a TYA theatre or arts organization in your region. They need your support now more than ever. What is "TYA"? The Theatre for Young Audiences Field across the US brings professional theatre productions, in-classroom learning, theatre training programming, family arts engagement, and more to millions of children and their communities each year. TYA/USA is the national organization for Theatre for Young Audiences. We represent, connect, support, and advocate for TYA organizations and artists across the US.
