DREAM CONNECTORS
Mentored. Prepared.
Connected.
Dream Connectors pairs emerging performers with a personal mentor working in the industry, alongside hands-on training and real access to Broadway. It's built around three things: industry readiness, mentorship, and access, everything a young artist needs to take their next step with confidence.
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Taking the Next Step
Dream Connectors is built for the moment when a young performer is ready to take their next serious step, whether that's a conservatory, a university BFA program, a pre-professional training program, or the industry itself. Dream Connectors gives teens and young adults direct access to the working professionals who can help them get there.
At the center of the program is a personal mentor. Each participant is paired with a working industry professional who guides them through their specific path, offering honest feedback, real perspective, and a genuine connection to the professional world.
Each experience also combines hands-on work with honest conversation. We help emerging artists understand what industry professionals actually look for, and how to walk into any room with confidence.
Dream Connectors is grounded in three things: industry readiness, mentorship, and access. It is purposeful and immersive by design, built around two distinct offerings that meet participants where they are.
High School, College & Conservatory Bound
For students aiming for competitive high school programs, BFA programs, conservatories, and university theatre departments. Dream Connectors gives you mentorship, professional feedback, and industry insight from people already working in the field.
Teens & Young Adults
Designed for participants ages 14 and up who have foundational training in acting, voice, or dance and are ready to engage with both the educational and professional performing arts world at a serious level.
On Broadway Alumni
A natural next step for students who have participated in On Broadway's summer or fall programs and are ready to deepen their preparation and chart their path forward – toward college programs, pre-professional training, or the industry itself.
SIGN UP
Dream Connectors: In The House
Dream Connectors: In the House is an access-focused experience designed to ensure students can attend Broadway and high-quality live theater who might not otherwise have the opportunity.
A Ticket To A Show
Every In the House experience begins with a seat in the theater.
A real Broadway or high-quality live performance, fully covered for participating students.
A Post-Show Talkback
Following the performance, students join a talkback with cast members – a direct conversation about professional artistry, process, and the pathways that led each artist to the stage.
Access & Belonging
Our goal is to give young people the chance to deepen their understanding of the art form, connect with working artists, and envision themselves as part of the world they see on stage.
