Creative Kids Playhouse Children’s Theatre of Orange County is a nonprofit organization founded in 2011 by Business Director Elizabeth Ramirez and Equity Stage Actress, Creative Director Michele Sheehy-Bowren with the vision that every child deserves a moment in the spotlight.  Their mission is to provide local children the opportunity to experience the exhilaration of performing, and to create entertaining productions for the community to enjoy.   "We strive to provide a quality theatre experience for your child from audition through closing night, while drawing out your child’s inner star in a fun and encouraging environment." states Director Michele Sheehy-Bowren. 

"Since our very first production in November, 2011, Creative Kids Playhouse Children’s Theatre of Orange County has produced 25 musicals, thanks to the wonderful response of the local community to our work.  Sharing our love for musical theater, and watching as the children take pride in their growing  skills and confidence is enormously rewarding.  We are thrilled to be able to continue in our mission!" adds Business Director Elizabeth Ramirez

Creative Kids Playhouse offers a variety of programs throughout the calendar year, from big productions like you are seeing today with the 6-14 year olds, to smaller one-act musicals in which the actors also design their sets and costumes, as well as summer camps and musical theater classes.  They have a thriving Tom Thumb Players program that produces age-appropriate musicals performed by 3-7 year olds.  This past summer they introduced The Excalibur Players,  a troupe of their oldest actors, open to kids entering sixth through tenth grade, with a production of the play, Robin Hood.
