In my conversation with Jeremy Kisling we talk about the importance of creating a sense of belonging for young people at the Lexington Children's Theatre. Jeremy emphasizes the universal need for all individuals to find spaces where they can be authentic and free from societal expectations. The discussion also explores the role of theatre in personal development, community engagement and the future vision for the theatre's impact on youth. We also talk about the evolution of themes for young people and the substances of contemporary theatre for youth.
The Lexington Children's Theatre has been in existence for 87 years, Jeremy having been there for 24 of those years. He is currently the Producing Artistic Director.
He has been a recipient of the Sara Spencer child Drama Award and the Tom Behm Award from the Southeastern Theatre Conference.
In 1986 The state legislators demed Lexington Children's Theatre the State children's Theatre of Kentucky.
