The Muny Kids and Teens function as year-round Muny ambassadors and perform in mainstage productions, as part of the nightly Preshow Festival and throughout the St. Louis region.
The Muny Kids (ages 9-14) and Muny Teens (ages 14 to 18) are chosen annually through auditions that take place in January and February. Participants are trained in voice, dance, stage presence, craft, dedication and discipline.
The programs were founded in 1994 and have produced many stars on and off the stage. Graduates attribute several tangible life skills to their participation.
The Muny Kids and Muny Teens are the flagship programs of the Crawford Taylor Education Initiative. Established in 2019, the Crawford Taylor Education Initiative aids in the development of new arts education opportunities while improving current Muny education programs under a single, cohesive framework. This initiative strives to provide unprecedented, hands-on instruction and mentoring to youth performers hoping to pursue a career on or offstage in musical theatre.
