Our Mission

With the opening of the Lewis Family Playhouse, the MainStreet Company quickly established itself as the newest professional Theatre for Young Audiences Company in the Inland Empire!

The MainStreet Theatre Company was created in 2006 by the City of Rancho Cucamonga to provide imaginative, professional theatre productions specifically designed for youth, school and family audiences.

With productions that rival any of the well established children’s theatre companies in the country, the MainStreet Theatre Company productions have enchanted and entertained school groups and families alike, bringing the magic of the theatre to thousands of children who had never seen a live performance before.

We were able to accomplish this extraordinary task with the help of some wonderfully gifted directors and designers, all of whom have national credits. Our talented professional actors not only bring the productions to life, but graciously participate in question and answer sessions with school groups and meet children and their families after all of our public performances, making their visit to the theatre a truly magical experience.

Our fifth season promises to bring three more terrific, quality shows to the children and families of the Inland Empire and beyond – with plays that will make children laugh, think, dream and set free the power of their imagination!

Like in our first four seasons, all of our productions will offer study guides for teachers (and parents) to download from our website and the Paul A. Biane Library will be offering complementary exhibits and programs to enhance the theatre-going experience.

We are so proud of the quality of our productions and are determined to continue to give children, who are experiencing theatre for the first time, memories that they will cherish their entire lives.

See you at the theatre!
