Arsenal Center for the Arts

Watertown Children’s Theatre Watertown Children's Theatre was founded in 1983 by Artistic Director Dinah Lane. In its nearly 25 years of service to the town of Watertown and surrounding communities, this award-winning program has enriched the lives of thousands of children and their families, and played a seminal role in the vision of the Arsenal Center for the Arts.  WCT, now resident children's theatre of the Arsenal Center for the Arts, offers year-round performance opportunities, internships and classes, including many grant-supported free programs, for children ranging in age from 18 months to 18 years. Combining values of artistic excellence with inclusiveness, reflected in its affordable fee structure, its open audition policy, and its involvement of entire families, the WCT has long been viewed as a community treasure.
