From 1955 to 1989, Junior Players presented traditional children's theater productions performed entirely by children and teenagers.

Junior Players, therefore, exclusively provides free arts education programs in local recreation and cultural centers, housing projects, elementary, middle and high schools, and through social service agencies serving youth at risk.
