Pleasanton Youth Theatre Company is an in-house theatre program for youth run by The City of Pleasanton. Though we’ve been putting on productions for several years, 2019 marked the first year that we started to run year-round shows and theatre programming! Our programs offer an enriching and inclusive experience for young performers to explore the magical world of theater. Tailored to various age groups, our programs provide a safe and nurturing environment for children and teenagers to develop their acting skills, build confidence, and foster a love for the performing arts. Led by experienced theater professionals, our instructors guide participants through a range of theater techniques, including improvisation, character development, voice projection, stage movement, and script analysis. Through engaging workshops, rehearsals, and performances, students learn the importance of teamwork, collaboration, and effective communication. Our programs also emphasize creativity and self-expression, allowing young performers to explore their artistic potential and discover their unique voices. Additionally, our youth theater programs provide opportunities for students to showcase their talents in front of supportive audiences, fostering a sense of accomplishment and pride. Whether participants aspire to pursue a career in theater or simply want to explore their creativity, our youth theater programs create a vibrant and inclusive community where young performers can grow, learn, and create unforgettable memories. Join us and unleash your inner star on the theatrical stage!

Based on the award-winning Broadway musical and the smash hit motion picture, Legally BlondeThe Musical JR. is a fabulously fun journey of self-empowerment and expanding horizons. The show’s instantly recognizable songs are filled with humor, wit and sass — leaving cast members and audiences alike seeing pink!
Legally Blonde JR. follows the transformation of Elle Woods as she tackles stereotypes, snobbery and scandal in pursuit of her dreams. When Elle’s boyfriend, Warner, dumps her and heads to Harvard, claiming she’s not “serious” enough, Elle takes matters into her own hands, crafting a showy song-and-dance personal essay and charming her way into law school. Befriending classmate, Emmett, and spunky hairdresser, Paulette, along the way, Elle finds that books and looks aren’t mutually exclusive. As Elle begins outsmarting her peers, she realizes that law may be her natural calling after all.
