Located in the heart of North Central Philadelphia, New Freedom Theatre
has been a beacon of light in this community for over 30 years. In 1971,
New Freedom Theatre developed its Performing Arts Training Program, a
rigorous performing arts training program used as a vehicle to instill
life skills in its students. The success of the program is overwhelming
