This program seeks to create a community of young theatre connoisseurs.
Organization Summary
Comprising the 2,000-seat Ahmanson Theatre, the 736-seat Mark Taper Forum, and the 317-seat Kirk Douglas Theatre, CTG is one of the nation’s largest regional theatres and one of the few regional theatres to successfully produce a broad variety of programming each season.
