The Jack Oakie and Victoria Horne Oakie
Summer Youth Programs
At Rubicon Theatre Company, summer is a season of imagination, discovery, and bold creative adventure – and 2026 is shaping up to be one of our most exciting yet!
Our 2026 Summer Education Programs are currently in development, and we can’t wait to share what’s in store. From dynamic performances, intensives and hands-on theatre training to inspire artists to shine onstage, this summer promises to ignite creativity, build confidence, and foster meaningful artistic growth in a supportive and professional environment. Whether your student is stepping into the spotlight for the first time or ready to take their craft to the next level, Rubicon’s education programs are designed to challenge, inspire, and connect young artists through the power of storytelling.
Exciting plans are underway, and full program details will be announced soon.
Be sure to keep an eye on our website and social channels – you won’t want to miss what’s coming!
Summer at Rubicon is more than a program. It’s a place to belong, to grow, and to create something unforgettable.
Financial Aid
Our goal is to ensure that any student who wishes to participate may do so. No student is turned away because of a family’s inability to pay the tuition. Aid is based on need.
Our financial aid policies may be found HERE. Applications usually open in May.
If you would like to provide support and help sponsor a student, please call
Karyl Lynn Burns at 805.667.2912, ext. 224, or email her at [email protected].
Oakie Awards
A limited number of merit and talent-based financial awards are made possible through the generosity of the Jack Oakie and Victoria Horne Oakie Charitable Foundation. These awards are given at the discretion of the administrative staff and approved by the foundation trustees.
Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteer Opportunities for the upcoming Jack Oakie and Victoria Horne Oakie Charitable Foundation 2026 Summer Program will open once the season is announced.
