Bell Mar Plaza will be home to the youth theater’s 2025 productions
SURPRISE, Ariz. – August 1, 2024 – Actors PLAYground Theater Company is proud to announce that it has signed a lease agreement for the Bell Mar Plaza theater space. The 80-seat theater is located at 11340 West Bell Road, Suite 105, Surprise, Ariz.
During its first year of operation, Actors PLAYground has rented various spaces in the area.
“We’ve appreciated all of our production homes this year, but it was always our intent to find a more permanent theater for our young artists to learn, grow, and play in,” says Amber Ryan, Actors PLAYground’s artistic director and president. “When this well-known space became available, we knew our performers, families, and audiences would be thrilled to experience the magic of the theater here.”
Actors PLAYground is a youth theater company based in Surprise that offers youth acting classes, including specialized opportunities for teens and home school families, and opportunities to audition for and perform in multiple productions a year. It’s known for being a judgment-free creative space where young people gain confidence, explore complex emotions and situations, and discover new levels of compassion, empathy, and understanding.
As the theater completes its 2024 calendar, shows will continue in their scheduled locations with plans to launch 2025’s productions at Bell Mar Plaza.
“A more permanent location will help add to our students’ overall experience,” Amber says. “We are looking forward to making this theater our home and seeing our performers thrive in such a professional environment.”
