What is the Summerville
Youth Dreams Company
The Summerville Youth Dreams Company is an organization that caters to the youth of our community and thrives on family support. While preparing for performances, students learn the craft of musical theater, acting, voice, and choreography.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide our members a place to learn musical theater skills as they prepare for Broadway style productions. During each new season, students learn to express their talent and creativity through the reenactment of some of today’s and yesterdays most amazing movies and Broadway shows. Add to this their spark of imagination as they produce some original skits, and you have the “magic” of our SYDC kids!
