The Theater Bug

    Our mission is to inspire young people and audiences to create community and build confidence – encouraging them through educational experiences in the performing arts.

    Since opening its doors, The Theater Bug has become one of Nashville’s most celebrated creative communities where students of all ages learn, perform, and grow together.

    Every show at The Theater Bug is an original production written for our young artists, from our original plays and musicals to the student written plays in our annual Ten-Minute Play Festival.

    Our productions are vibrant, heartfelt, and fearless about the issues that matter most. Whether you’ve got kids in the cast or not, you’ll leave inspired by the talent on stage and moved by the stories we tell.

    Join us at The Theater Bug and experience the power of young voices taking the stage. Each performance is a reminder of what’s possible when a community encourages young artists.

    Your ticket supports the next generation of Nashville artists and keeps our programs low-cost or free for students in need. Get your tickets and be part of our story!
