"All the world’s a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages.”

Who are we?
Founded in 1994 we are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that gives students, their families, and general audiences an opportunity to experience classic theater in a fun and virtuous environment. Our goal is to create a collaborative learning experience that can help home-schooled youth grow in character, gain self-confidence and learn clear communication skills. We give students the opportunity to create a solid academic foundation in language arts by functioning at the highest levels of literacy. Perform It! also collaborates with community musicians, choreographers, artists, technicians, and builders to create the scenes we use in our shows.
In short, we are a non-profit educational theater group for home-schooled youth aged 12 to 19 in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire. “All The World's A Stage...Perform It Well!"

Rebekah Billings is honored to take on the role of Artistic Director for Perform It! Stage Company. This is Rebekah’s first show with Perform It! She has much experience in the theater field including several original produced plays, acting roles, and behind the scenes work (such as directing, lighting, sound, and set design). She attended Bob Jones University in Greenville, SC where she received both a bachelors and masters degree in Theater Arts. Rebekah has always had a passion for theater and was thrilled when the opportunity arose to join the Perform It! team. She grew up in the Lakes Region and after six years at school she is so glad to finally be back home in her native New England. In November of 2017, she married her best friend, whom she met working backstage on one of the university’s theater productions. She is so thankful for Grant’s unwavering support as she lives her dream and works with such talented young people!
