Inclusive Theater Season Returns!

We're back!! Our Inclusive Theater season kicks off in September where we will work collaboratively to create ALL-NEW, ORIGINAL musicals!

We will once again be performing on stage, for a live audience in March 2022 at McDaniel College.

Inclusive Theater Company A has 6 spots remaining.

Inclusive Theater Company B is FULL but join our Waiting List.

​In some instances, you may join BOTH groups if you have a dual diagnosis.

Merkle Community Garden in Downtown Sykesville.
