JCompany Youth Theatre

JCompany was founded in 1993 as a Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center program by Founding Artistic Director Becky Cherlin Baird and Founding Executive Producer, Melissa Garfield Bartell. JCompany has since developed into one of San Diego's leading youth theatre companies. It's current staff includes Artistic Director, Joey Landwehr and Managing Director, Krystle Hart.

Designed to engage and motivate youth to express themselves and connect with each other and their community through theatre development and performance, JCompany offers classes in theatre performance and production and has built a solid base of programming that focuses heavily on instruction.

With the development of the JACOBS FAMILY CAMPUS and the David & Dorothea Garfield Theatre, JCompany has developed professionally mounted performances, and is now considered one of Southern California's leading family-based youth theatre companies.
