About Our Theatre

Tiny Spotlight is the San Fernando Valley’s premiere children’s theatre academy offering musical theatre and improv classes to children ages 3-11.  The academy is owned by  Lindsay Ravage (who earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in Theatre from USC) and started Tiny Spotlight after feeling there was a lack of theatre classes in the Valley for her own kids.  Lindsay's goal is to provide her students with a fun-filled performance experience that builds confidence and lets kids know that their ideas are important and what they have to say matters. The classes are taught by top-notch directors in a real theatre setting.  Tiny Spotlight classes are held at the charming Two Roads Theater in Little Tujunga Village in the heart of Studio City, California.
