FMTA exists to provide children with opportunities to learn life skills through dramatic art. From puppetry to pantomime, FMTA takes a unique approach to dramatic art education. By focusing on the true meaning of ensemble, chivalry, and risk, the intellectual, social, behavioral, and emotional growth of each and every child is assured.

Beginning with a small "backyard" children's ensemble in 2003, the program has since grown to include an after school repertory theatre training program at each Benicia elementary school, a variety of summer camps for children 7-14 years old and leadership/job opportunities for middle and high school students.

Director Nikki Tillotson is an ATP alumnus!
