ABOUT US
Emerald City Performing Arts provides exceptional performing arts training for young artists throughout the Greater Seattle area. We are committed to cultivating artistic excellence through high-quality instruction in acting, singing, dance, and musical theatre while fostering a supportive, inclusive community where every student feels seen, valued, and encouraged. We believe that young artists grow best when they are challenged to reach their highest potential in an environment built on respect, collaboration, and genuine care.
At ECPA, training extends far beyond technique. Our programs combine expert instruction, meaningful mentorship that helps students develop confidence, discipline, creativity, and resilience. Whether rehearsing in the studio, performing on stage, participating in competitions and festivals, or traveling together, students learn the value of teamwork, leadership, accountability, and artistic curiosity while building skills that will serve them throughout their lives.
Above all, we believe the performing arts have the power to shape not only exceptional performers, but exceptional people. Every student brings unique talents, perspectives, and dreams, and our goal is to help each artist discover their own voice while finding a true sense of belonging within our community. At Emerald City Performing Arts, we are committed to training artists, building community, and inspiring excellence—both onstage and beyond.

testimonials
It has been an absolute joy watching my daughter grow under the guidance of Jessica Low. Jessica's dedication, artistry, and genuine care inspire performers to flourish both on and off the stage. I’m deeply grateful for the lasting impact she’s had on my daughter’s journey.
-B. Kearney (mother of 13 year old)
In the five years I’ve been studying with Jessica, my theatrical understanding has expanded in ways I could never have imagined. She has been a figure of professionalism and creativity in my life. She leads with the perfect balance of laughs and focus, and her organization makes her processes smooth and precise. Jessica has also been a pillar of stability for me, supporting me through every turn life takes with her compassion, guidance, and individuality. It's hard to describe the way that Jessica impacts her students, but if I had to pick a phrase, I would choose ‘holistically inspiring.’
