Wisconsin’s Queer Youth Theater.

We’re on a mission.

We’re changing the world through the power of theater and the theater arts, and making a positive difference in the lives of LGBTQ+ and allied youth through the tenets of art, heart, and activism.

—Our Mission

Proud Theater is a powerful community of queer* youth who share their stories with the world. We create brave spaces for youth to find support and express themselves.

We teach theater, activism, and the power of authentic storytelling. We help youth find community and become leaders.

We’re in
Green Bay and
Madison, Wisconsin.

Proud Theater is open to queer and allied youth, and youth with queer parents, ages 13 to 19. We want all youth to have access to spaces where they can be themselves, so we don’t require auditions or fees to join. All are welcome.

*Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, intersex, aromantic, asexual, and Two-Spirit
