Next Stage
At Orlando Family Stage, we create transformative theatrical experiences that empower young people to be brave and empathetic. Through Theatre for Young Audiences, Youth Academy, Arts-Based Learning in schools, our UCF partnership, and Theatre for the Very Young, we do more than produce theatre. We help children grow in confidence, compassion, and creativity while building a stronger sense of community.
You can help ensure that Orlando Family Stage, and the children who shine on its stages, continue to thrive in our second century and for generations to come.
The Next Stage Society honors friends who have included Orlando Family Stage in their estate plans. A legacy gift helps sustain access to live theatre for students, new work inspired by children’s literature, and programs that build confidence, empathy, and belonging year after year.
We would be glad to speak with you, confidentially and without obligation, about how a gift in your will or estate can reflect your personal goals and your love of theatre for young people.
