Creativity

The Freedom Players Youth Theatre Group and Fan Con NC event are two initiatives that fully encompass the Cultivator’s dedication to creativity.

Freedom Players Youth Theatre Group

The Freedom Players Youth Theatre Group, a dynamic program of The Cultivator, brings young talent to the stage, using performance arts to promote rural literacy, creativity, and storytelling— the core values of our mission.

The Freedom Players Youth Theatre Group welcomes young people from all backgrounds— whether homeschooled, or enrolled in private or public schools. Through a yearly summer camp program and regular theatre practices, this group allows everyone to experience theatre. The group is proud to be inclusive and create a place of belonging for everyone.

In 2023, these passionate performers delighted local audiences with The Wizard of Oz, and The Addams Family, followed by productions of The Outsiders, Matilda Jr. The Musical, and Roald Dahl’s Willy Wonka Jr. in 2024.

Through theatre, we cultivate imagination, teamwork, confidence, and community connections— nurturing the next generation of storytellers and change-makers.

2025 Season
Looking ahead to 2025, the Freedom Players will present Charlotte’s Web, The Great Gatsby, and The Sound of Music (to be done through our third summer camp), and Beetlejuice continuing their tradition of staging inspiring stories that resonate with audiences of all ages.

Tickets are not yet available for 2025 shows.
