Theatre is Our Tradition

Poison Apple Productions

Poison Apple Productions is an international award winning non-profit 501(c)3 high quality children’s and community theater production company.

Welcome to Poison Apple Productions! We have been a non-profit 501 (c) 3 family run, volunteer based theater company since 2000 - and developed into a professional children’s theater training program, and high quality production company. Our roots are humble, and based in imagination and collaboration. Our goals include bettering our community one story at a time either in our 60 seat playhouse theater space, OR at the Lesher Center for the Arts, OR at other community events.

We offer a wide variety of performing arts experiences for youth, and adults. Don’t be fooled though, while we are primarily a “children’s theater” we deeply believe that children being involved is happenstance - we create high quality theater, that happens to include children.

Our programs are award winning, our teaching artists and staff members are highly trained, vetted, and passionate about our participants and audiences experience. We’d love for you to be a part of our creative community.

we at Poison Apple Productions strongly stand against racism, discrimination, injustice, and prejudice. we commit to championing policies and practices of cultural equity that contribute to the growth and improvement of a just, inclusive, equitable world.
