Tweens and teens who are curious about theater can learn about the various aspects of production at Teenage Drama Workshop, held on the California State University, Northridge campus. The program, which welcomes all experience levels, includes voice, acting and dance instruction.

I’m hopeful as we begin to come out of this crisis that arts education will gain a new importance,” Lennon says. -- L.A. Parent
