Our Mission
Riverdale Children’s Theatre brings together Bronx-area children from diverse religious, cultural and economic backgrounds to learn about themselves, each other and the joy of performing. We are committed to excellence by providing high quality instruction and production values; diversity through broad outreach to Bronx and its surrounding areas; inclusivity through tuition assistance for low-income families; building community through relationships and partnerships with local artists, institutions, public schools and community centers.
Our Commitment to Kindness
We want RCT actors, parents, and staff to try and follow these basic rules:
1.Be Kind to Ourselves
2.Be Kind to Each Other
3. Be Kind to Our Space
We seek to be positive,
putdown put-downs,
honor our differences,
discover our similarities,
heal any hurts, listen to each other,
reach high for success,
and strive for excellence.
