YADA (Youth Academy of Dramatic Arts) has been offering comprehensive theatrical training to youth in Los Angeles for over 10 years. Located in the historic Dupree Dance building at W. 3rd St. and Crescent Heights Blvd., YADA offers a safe and exciting environment in which students can learn, grow, and enrich their lives while practicing the skills of theatrical performance. Classes are delineated based on age (5-17 yrs) and ability (Primary-Master & Company). And each class culminates in an unforgettable performance in our own 75 seat theatre. Designers, directors, choreographers, musical directors, stage managers and running crew are all on staff to facilitate the best performance experience for youth in Los Angeles.
