Junior Theatre Festival

What is JTF?

The Junior theatre Festival (JTF) is the world’s biggest and best celebration of young people performing musical theatre! JTF brings together student musical theatre troupes from all over the world for a weekend of musical theatre mayhem and madness. Each troupe performs fifteen minutes from a Broadway Junior®️ show for adjudication by a panel of musical theatre experts. The weekend also features workshops for students and parents, a New Works Showcase featuring new musical adaptations soon to be released and concludes with a grand finale concert headlined by Broadway’s best! JTF gives everyone who attends the opportunity to experience the transformative power of musical theatre through watching performances, attending workshops and making connections with other musical theatre groups from around the world.
