Tuscaloosa Urban Theatre nurtures the intellectual, artistic and personal development of children and youth through drama education, performing opportunities and live theatre experiences. We are a school and a theatre. Surprising as it might sound, it is not our mission to produce young actors. Our curriculum is designed to develop life skills such as confidence, critical and creative thinking, cooperation, and aesthetic sensitivity.TUT is a theater and a school providing a wide range of classes and programs designed to further theatrical learning experiences for children age 3-18. We are the area's leader in producing "theatre by kids, for kids."
